A review by vicariousbookstagram
More Than Her by Jay McLean

3.0

I’m torn on this book. It leaves off on a cliff hanger which is okay since I have the whole series. I just wasn’t expecting it. The story over all is good but there are still things I know many would find bothersome. There is a lot of “toxic masculinity” in this book. Which doesn’t necessarily offend me but it would others. The author also continues to use terms like “eye raping” which could also ruffle feathers. Do ppl in college talk like this? Probably but it feels out of place in the book, it just kind of pulls me out of my book coma. Also the main character doesn’t take no for an answer and wears the other main down. The female also is not clear with her wants and continues a “no-yes-no-yes” vibe which is confusing. I know this is just fiction but there is so much wrong with it and the message it gives out. “Stalk a person and be hot and you’ll get what you want.” I liked the story and enjoyed many parts of it but then there were parts that were bothersome. By the end I could see why some of it was necessary and made sense for these 2. Also there is a lot of over the top drama/trauma to many people. I’m on the fence. Its good but its bad.
