I’m a huge fan of Geneva Lee! Blacklist is the first book of a new series written by Geneva Lee.

I love that throughout the book we get to read from both Sterling and Adair’s viewpoint. The book goes back and forth between the present and up to five years into the past. It becomes clear rather quickly that these two have a history. I really liked Sterling’s character. Based on his upbringing, I could understand why he was the way he was.

Adair frustrated me but I started to sympathize with her as the book went on. She is the typical spoiled rich kid with a mean girl attitude. Sterling and Adair have chemistry but they both constantly question what they think they see with the other and they both constantly question whether they are not good enough for the other. When they feel threatened, they attack with words to slice the other down as a defense mechanism.

This book ends with a cliffhanger. I still have a lot of questions about what really happened in the past to cause the current enemy/revenge between them. I really feel like they love each other but for some reason, they don’t think they are good enough for each other. I can’t wait for September 2020 to read the next book to see where their story goes!
