Bleed Like Me by Christa Desir
2.0
I appreciate what Desir was trying to say with her book but I felt like it was poorly executed and the ending was too abrupt and made no sense to me. I didn’t know if it was hinting a possibility of new move or what.
I would have understood the passion and intensity of Brooks and Gannon’s relationship if Ali wasn’t in the picture. If you’re wrapped up in someone because you’re lonely, it’s because you have no friends. But Gannon has Ali, and it’s her own fault for not wanting to open up to her. Ali was way too good of a friend considering how shitty Gannon was.
I couldn’t stand Gannon as a character and didn’t see the appeal of Brooks.
I also felt like her adopted brothers were too wild and dark to be real. They are pure evil and I can’t believe her mom wouldn’t give up on them. They were ungrateful little shits. Considering that they were poor and starving in another country, they should be more appreciative and tame.
I know I’m never reading this book again.
