Reviews

[booksandcats]

Yet another Stanislaskis novel. I am not quite sure what to think of this one. On one hand I enjoyed the characters, both of them seperately seeming interesting and the side characters, some of them having appeared in their own stories before seemed very nice. But some parts of this story just seemed to rub me the wrong way. Freddie seemed to put so much pressure on Nick, at times almost forcing herself onto him. Of course this can be seen as a romantic and interesting, for once the initiative coming from the female. But just some of her actions, the way she was sometimes using her body to press or rub against him seemed off to me. So what if he is attracted to her as well, or if she believes he is the love of her life? He has a right to decide not to follow through on those feelings, even if that decision is based on stupid ideas and wrong ideals. She, however has no right to force this relationship if he says no. And I guess that pretty much sums up my problem with this book. Otherwise it was pretty good, the chemistry between the two good for the most part, the interactions with the family funny and heartwarming. And, once Nick "came around", the romantic scenes worked pretty good as well.
