well…i’m kind of glad it’s over.
for starters, i don’t mean to be necessary rude towards the author. this book just wasn’t what i like to read and there were quite a few things that made me slightly uncomfortable or i didn’t like.
the age gap. 14 and 17 (out of high school) when they had a first sexual encounter. "i’m not like other girls my age, i want this" and the fact he was turned on by a prepubescent girl (as he described three years later that a grown up briar is straight up lethal) just was weird. everything surrounding their ages was. even when she was seventeen. he described her as a "tiny little girl"
everything was about sex. not saying it wasn’t a good smut but literally almost every interaction they had lead to the two of them having sex. i felt like there was such little communication between them because of it.
and last of what i wrote was that ash was very possessive and double standards. no guy was to approach her. when she slept with one guy and he was mad about it while he most definitely slept with half the girls in his school or in his area. not something i like.
although one thing made me wonder. will or did dash and aiden (don’t know the correct spelling) have a thing? what w said at the party about a not getting it up without his best friend just made a thought wander into my mind.
i read the next books are better so i hope it’s true. this wasn’t my cup of tea and i was very happy when i finished it. didn’t feel much while reading and i am an emotional reader.
