Mason by Leila James

4.0

So going in I thought this one would be a lot like Hawthorn, but it really wasn’t. I wouldn’t call this a bully romance, which was completely fine, I guess I just kind of expected it.

Bear so far is my favorite, though I love Mason’s crazy and Duke’s assholery. I can already see where our MM will be coming from and I think maybe its already happened in the past from the vibes they give off. I won’t say I love this one as much as the first series, because right now I did find it kind of fell flat. Like not a whole lot of plot happened, we find out some interesting things about Lennon, but I’m ready to get to the dark side of things.

Lennon is thrown in Bainbridge Hall by her cringy step dad, and we have the whole step brother trope with Duke. Mason is the “scary” one who tries to choke her to death…but she happened to be sleepwalking like wtf lol. Bear is the protective daddy which yes please. He keeps them all in line. I’m excited to get more into the story in Bear! And I can’t wait to see Duke’s cover!
