![]() ![]() ![]() Like, Lifetime Movie Network called and they want their script back. The reunions sucked because the stakes felt so low and I never felt any adrenaline or excitement about their reunion. There’s really no way for me to jump into this other than chronologically, so here we go. The difference is, whereas all the other Shatter Me books’ good parts outweighs any bad that exists, this book had so many terrible scenes and lines of dialogue that were not be redeemed by the sparse action and melodramatic romance scenes. ![]() This review is going to sound really negative, but truthfully, I think this book has equal parts good and bad. I just was more prepared that it wasn't going to be what I was hoping. I didn't find myself as upset by this as I was the first time(s) I read it, but I don't think the book got any better. This book's two halves are competing to be the worst half: the first half is SO boring and over-explained with no plot points, and the second half is the characters calling themselves by new names with cliche and annoying dialogue. Definitely not 4 or 5 stars, but I don't know if I could go lower. ![]()
