marisa_givens 's review for:
The Pact
by Karina Halle
First all night straight through read I've had in quiet some time and my first 5 star book of 2015(thought it would take me longer than just the 3rd of January to find one I'm this crazy about). I just couldn't put this one down and go to sleep.
I really liked the dual perspectives and I really really liked that the main characters didn't just fall into bed with each other immediately. I felt that them not getting together until about half way through the book made their relationship seem that much more believable and real.
My only real problem with this book is one I have with almost all romance novels. Can we please stop with the 'oh we're at 75% of the way through and the couple has to break up and then get back together' bullshit? I get that all relationships have their ups and downs but not every damn romance novel needs to have the main characters weepy messes for a good 1/5 of the book before having a magical happy ending.
Anyway I really loved this one and I highly recommend it.
