Holy crap. What a ride! I started out thinking I wasn't going to like this book, but that ending completely changed my view.
Amazing!
Looking forward to reading more from this author.

I loved reading this book. The writing style is smooth and easy to follow. The story line was entertaining and riviting.
There was one part, a very small part, that felt very out of place. Almost as if the author was trying to lighten the mood. It was very unnecessary and a bit distracting.

This book was so captivating. If I could, I probably would have read this in a day.
I didn't know where this book was going, but I was totally here for it.
Really enjoyed it.

There is a lot to say about this book. I'll simplify by stating that I didn't like it, for many reasons. my biggest being the conversations between characters felt so forced and fake. It comes across as if the writer doesn't know how a normal conversation takes place, too many ands starting off sentences.

3.0

I enjoyed less than half of this book.
We start off with the introduction of the main character and their realtionship. We are supposed to believe they hate each other. I'm not sure why, but I did not feel hatrid. What I did feel was juvenile, prenting not to like each other.
If you want a enemies to loves story, I wouldn't reccomend this one.

I felt there was a lack of build up in the relationship. We went stright from annoying/agrivating each other to completely in love.

Lucy is either very naïve or just plain dumb. Surely a woman of her age should be more awear of Josh's feelings, considering how much time they spend together.

What I would have loved was more of "the game". It obviously has a large roll in the story, but I felt like it was quickly left behind.
