bookshelves: not-my-cup-of-tea

I thought this book would be something similar to the Fifty Shades Series and I liked the cover, so I decided to try it, but it was nothing like it.

It was just too raw, brutal, vulgar and primal, in short a "bit" too much for me-I guess not my cup of tea.

****INSIGNIFICANT SPOILERS ALERT, BUT STILL SPOILERS****


I didn't like the female protagonist; she was too naive, immature and weak- she kept on crying and crying and feeling sorry for herself, but did nothing about it, and I utterly hated the male protagonist (nothing like Christian:); he was just too brutal and vulgar, made me want to
scream at him and even hit him, make him "my submissive" xD...just to show him his place.

I was shocked by the way he behaved to her- I mean he called her 'his whore' or his 'anal-loving whore' all the time and even hit her so hard that it left her bruised and what's worse of it all- he made her sleep with others and humiliated her on the every possible way he could and the girl fell for him in spite of everything (wtf?????????) and when he finally admitted that he was falling for her too- it felt so fake and to tell you the truth- hilarious.

His behavior made me sick and mad at the same time, I skipped through most of the book, because everything was so raw and I guess out of my league.

I don't know, maybe I'm just too old-fashioned when it comes to this subject, but I just couldn't relate to it, because the emotions felt too fake.

Glass Fifty Shades je više usmjeren na priču iza "kinkarija" - u zadnjoj knjizi čak i nema nešto "šokantno". Zato lakše i prolazi od ove ili nekih drugih bdsm knjiga.

Mislila sam da je i ova knjiga nesto poput te, al' sam se grdno prevarila,haha...Trebala sam se mozda malo vise informirat. Definitivno OUT OF MY LEAGUE:).


Glass Ako te zanimaju ove "adult" knjige, probaj sa Megan Hart. Do sada sam pročitala Broken i Tempted. Imaju zaista odličnu priču, nisu "naivne" i "spice" scene su... pa, "logične". Vidjet ćeš šta mislim ako počneš čitati.


Purple Procitala sam Broken i Stranger- cudo su mi, posebice Broken mi je jedna od najdrazih knjiga iako sam u pocetku bila skepticna.


Glass Znam na šta misliš - mene je iznenadila, nisam uopšte očekivala onakvu priču.
