A review by shelbanuadh
Every Other Weekend by TA Moore
3.0
Generally, I would say that I am a fan of T.A. Moore's writing. With every other book I've read from her, I've found it hard to put down. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case with this one. By no means was it horrible, but I just didn't enjoy it to the level of other books I've read from her.
The plot was interesting, but I think what didn't click for me was the characters. I didn't really care for Clayton. I didn't really care for Kelly. I didn't care for Nadine or any of Kelly's family. The only character that I cared about was Baker, and he takes a back burner to all the drama going on in this book.
And as for the chemistry between Clayton and Kelly, I suppose you just have to buy into the fact that they've been thirsting after each other for a few years now, otherwise it just seems to sudden. Other than Baker pointing out to Clayton that he has slowly been falling for Kelly for a while now, there is really nothing that made me believe this was anything more than lust.
But, the actual plot was interesting. That was what redeemed this for me.
The thing is, if I read this without knowing who the author was, I never would have guessed it was written by T.A. Moore. And maybe if I hadn't known that she wrote it, I would have enjoyed it more, but as it stands, I found it a bit of a let down from an author I've come to expect a high quality read from. All the other books from her are ones that I would definitely re-read, and while this was a good read, it definitely doesn't warrant a re-read in my books.
