Sagittarius Saves Libra
by Anyta Sunday
This is another book by an author who have parted ways with, as their recent releases have not worked for me, but I've really enjoyed most of the books in this series and it's what got me hooked on this author to begin with, so when I saw they came out with a new one, I caved... and I'm glad I did!
Honestly, this was just a fun, amusing read. Yes the banter is a little (okay, a lot) OTT at times, which I think might have annoyed me more if I hadn't taken such a lot hiatus from their other books, so it didn't feel too much like overload. The concept of this does require some suspension of belief, but I thought the ~twist~ on the swapped lives was definitely interesting and I appreciated the emotional aspect. I also very much appreciated that the love interest, Owen, knows from the start that Jason is pretending to be his twin, as that would have been a big squick for me and something I was worried about going into the book. Jason is oblivious to the point of incredulity. He says a LOT of suggestive stuff, apparently by accident, which would be believable if he immediately after saying shit realized how it sounded, but he never does--annoying but minor.
Big public scene at the end, which I hate, but it *wasn't* technically a feelings declaration, so I'm not too mad about it. I do think this book follows the pattern/formula of a lot of other Sunday books--in terms of dynamics, I'd say it's almost indistinguishable from several other couples of hers, but it just so happens that it's a dynamic that very much works for me, and maybe because of my hiatus, but it didn't bother me at all. IDK, this book definitely hasn't convinced me that I should go back to reading Sunday's books, but I *did* really enjoy it. *shrug* I'm complicated.
