The Date Dare by Tara Sue Me
2.0
I was really excited to read this one as the synopsis sounded fun and intriguing.
Sadly, it did not hit the mark for me. It had so much potential, but felt like a major flop.
It more or less just felt like a log of thoughts and conversations. There was so much talking, even some useless conversations that had no purpose.
I found that a lot of details were either left out or lacking and sometimes something would happen without an explanation.
How did Darcy know to go to the treehouse? He never told her that was his plan and it should have been something asked, "How did you know this was where I was taking you?" Or something.
It also really irked me that Darcy was so naive towards Elliott.
Even during they're date, after he has pulled her into his lap and is holding her, she is convincing herself that he doesnt have feelings for her. And I'm sorry, but you're on a date!! Why are you reading and falling asleep??
The thing I liked most was the idea behind the story, but for the most part, it just didn't work for me. I really had to force myself to finish this one - blame curiosity and my inability to DNF.
