Fall Forever (Fall For Me, #2)

by Melanie Marks

Fall For Me should probably be published as one book. It would make Fall For Me a stronger read, giving it more depth. This was alright, extremely dramatic and full of teenage angst and feelings - and I kind of hated it but I think it's a it's not you it's me scenario - I think I'm getting a bit too old to read this stuff. It made me remember how much I hated that crap in high school.

There were some fluffy flirty bits but there was greater intensity in this one. Massive fights? Mental hospitals? Taking bats to cars? The ending absolutely sucked. WTF?! She totals his car by driving into a tree? It didn't make any sense why he would leave the car - his baby - out for starters and secondly, wtf is wrong with her? It was a completely stupid thing to do. The only thing worse than that was the fact that twice through this book she gets offered non-alcoholic drinks by older men and ACCEPTS THEM? Look, teenagers do stupid things but let's not give them ideas. First off, they were alcoholic, she didn't know these men and she almost gets sexually assaulted because let's face it - older men getting a seventeen year old girl drunk probably aren't going to help her home and make sure she's safe and untouched. She doesn't even seem to realise or understand the significance of what could have been. Either time! It majorly irritated me.

1.5 stars rounded up to 2 and the author should consider putting a note about not accepting drinks from strangers.
