I read #1 Rival and I remember I enjoy it very much. Now on #1 Crush, I am reeling. The book is rom com. It has that funny, sassy conversation. Especially from Tia. About half of the book I do crack a smile.
Then the last 50% is... flat. The comedy not helping at all. In fact the comedy makes it obvious that Tia is immature and stupid. The romance about lying identity is not something new. I guess this book has so much promises, but somehow the author does not up her writing or the comedy to be something more meaningful and more adult.
The chemistry is also off toward the end.
Overall 50% of this book is promising, but then the ending is not.
