It Ain't Me, Babe by Tillie Cole

5.0

O.O That was one huge mind fuck for me. And this isn't in a bad way whatsoever.
The beginning... Wow. Just crazy. And the middle sure is emotional. And the ending is where it blew me away.
I can't actually review this book, because my mind isn't fully wrapped around it.
I felt really sad for Rider. He was a good friend, all around nice guy, but with him wanting Mae and she only wanting Styx, it made it very saddening. But when the ending came, I did not see that one coming. I actually teared up, because he's a nice guys...and then he wasn't. And it broke my heart. As side characters go, he was one I really liked.

*contains predictions of future books*

I'm really looking forward to book three of the series with Flame and Mae's sister. In this we meet Flame as sort of a disturbed guy who likes pain. I don't know... I didn't quite figure him out. But we know he doesn't like being touched but when he killed a certain guy and Mae's sister hugged him,, and he didn't complain... Well I'm interested to see this story.
I'm also really lookin forward to book four: Rider's story. I do hope he ends up being a good guy again and maybe even rejoins Styx's club. I suspect he will rise to power like he's been trained to but end up taking the commune down.
And of course I'm looking forward to book two as well

Overall fantastic romantic, colorful read. Quite dark, so be mindful of mature themes. It's the book that I refused to look away from (which is why I'm still awake when I have work in the morning :p)
