mackiii 's review for:
This Lullaby
by Sarah Dessen
Ugh... I know can't believe I'm saying ugh to a Sarah Dessen book either. In conclusion, these were my main problems:
1) Remy - it was too hard to find things likeable with this character. Dessen played on the whole 'oh I've seen to many examples of failed relationships therefore I think I'm incapable of loving and won't let anyone in'. I wouldn't normally have a problem with this but it was just too over the top.
2) The romance - how was it cute that he straight up stalked her and then finally she gave in? What kind of story is that? i know why I found Dexter charming at times but I sure as heck don't know what made Remy like him, since that was never explained or "displayed". Furthermore, how was it cute that Dexter offered her everything a girl could possible want, she turned him down in a quite mean way and then the second she realizes her mistake and comes back running he just welcomes her with open arms?
3) basically, I felt like 90 % of the book was about someone sipping on a drink, smoking, going to the club and cars.
