Lover Arisen by J.R. Ward
1.0
*heavy sigh* I think it’s time I retire my attempt at finishing this book. It’s my first official DNF and first JR Ward book I haven’t finished. That’s saying something because it took me at least 2 years to finish the Chosen because I utterly despise Layla! I’m really sad I can’t seem to finish this one because I wanted Balthazar so freaking bad it’s insane. The book drags on and to many scenarios happening in one. Also, I made the mistake of reading the comments here and taking into consideration that she brings back an utterly despicable character that we’ve already gotten rid of makes it even harder for me to continue this book.
There’s also seems to be a point of contention with how she wrote Davina and what she does to both Balthazar and Lassiter. At first, I thought maybe Ward wrote it as a play on like a succubus? But the fact that both characters keep telling Davina ‘no’ and to get out of their minds it borderlines on severe invasion of privacy and consent.
Maybe one day I’ll finish it but it seems like that day isn’t today, tomorrow, or anytime in the foreseeable future.
