Jaiden, The King Who Got Me by Miss Jenesequa

challenging emotional funny hopeful informative inspiring lighthearted reflective tense slow-paced
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.0

Here are things I loved about Jaiden’s book:

  • Mental health representation- I think this was done well. I enjoyed the inner monologues that the main characters had so that we as readers knew what they were thinking. Depression is a real thing and I loved how the author tackled this topic. You can see how certain conversations impacted the thoughts of the character and I respected how well it was written. 
  • Vitiligo - As you can see from the cover, the main female character has this skin condition and I truly enjoyed the representation of it. She was truly an empowered strong individual. I am glad that she was not written as an insecure, passive woman. 
  • She had no issues with being submissive to him (read the book- I won’t spoil it)
  • A man will and can change for the One (read the book- I shall not spoil it )
  • Side characters - they were everything. I especially loved Taz..

Things I was not a fan of:
  • Wordiness- in my opinion, I felt that things were a little wordy. Some things were a little too descriptive. 
  • Saying I love you early- now there were some building of the relationship between the main characters. I still felt that sharing ‘I love you’ was really early. The amount of time the two were getting acquainted was not really that long. 
  • The dog- um- yea .. I know people love their pets but this was a little too much for me. I understood his importance 
I knew that Jaiden would be the brother that I loved the most (out side of Genesis). He was funny and his personality was loveable. He was a true sweetheart and was not playing about his Sugar Mama. I enjoyed the story overall. I never thought all the brothers would get books after Jordana’s but glad they all got their moments to shine.
