lucidreigns 's review for:
Perfectly Jaded
by R.E. Bond
Is there a support group for these books yet?
I have loved, hated, craved, and suffered withdrawal throughout these books and this one...this one is unbridled cardiac havoc. I went in reminding myself that Jade was going to have a big story to tell and to keep my mind open to forgiveness for what she pulled in the last book. Be warned, it's pretty much instantly given.
Jade Winters is a lily in the fray.
She is brutality buried under layers of trauma and conditioning just waiting to be cracked open and set free. Jade Winters is f-ing OTHER. Rory is a baddie, no doubt, but Jade was developed in a totally different chemical solution. Jade Winters gave an unfiltered look inside the mind of someone who has been crushed into a mold to believe she's living the life she deserves.
Reading this book you are going to be confronted with a frustration that outweighs all others. Being an outsider looking in on abuse and trying to wrap your head around the choices and actions made and taken by a victim is so damn painful. You want to know why and how someone can allow these You to be done to them. You want to believe the solution to making it stop is easy. You want to believe that you would never be in their shoes. You have to eventually realize that it's not about right and wrong answers. Sometimes it's not even about the solutions. Survival mostly. Maybe getting out with even just a fractured piece of yourself.
It's about the damn journey. The during and the after. It's feeling it and keeping yourself.
Heavy stuff yeah? Stepping off. HOW BOUT THEM BOYS!?? I was THRILLED that Rory's boys were still so involved, even more so really. As if I wasn't in love enough with Skeeter and Marco!
