4 ⭐️ This was such a good novella and has me soooo exited for book 1 in this series!! I loved getting to know Noah and her friends and family and i loved that we got to see what she doesn’t remember in book 1. The story was so gripping and i binged the whole book in about half an hour! The plot has already built up so well and we got such a good look into the characters lives. As much as I’m annoyed at how this ended because i just wanna shake Noah and tell her that her boyfriend is a T*t i also think it’s best she doesn’t remember it. If you’re planning on reading NoFear when it releases in March then i highly recommend you read this story first!!

Influencers. Rich kids. Betrayal. Secrets. Sold… this 46 page novella is prepping us for Noah’s Origin story so when No Fear lands in March… we will have all we need to dive in and enjoy!

I loved ever second of this novella, and the fact that I, indeed, feel like I was punched in the gut while reading Noah’s night out at an influencer party with red carpet and no shortage of rich kids who came to fame from ClikByte (basically TT), I knew that I will not have a moments of peace until No Fear comes out…

[MissLyza · Rating 4 out of 5]

Always torturing us with the cliff hanger! As always I can’t wait for her never book to drop!

[Mira · Rating 5 out of 5]

What a great little snippet to starting Noah’s story!! I’m super excited to see where this goes, I need MORE.

[✨ Caitlin (whatcaitisreading)✨ · Rating 5 out of 5]

Such a tease! I absolutely need the next one asap!

[Sandie Chraponski · Rating 5 out of 5]

AHHHHHH!!!!!

Tate James has a new series coming?? And she wrote a prequel to get us excited about it?? SAY LESS!!

No one can grab my attention faster than Tate, this prequel is under 50 pages, and I don’t even think it took me 3 to be invested.

I can not wait for this series, Noah is going to be bada$$ and the plethora of men she’s going to be able to choose from is phenomenal.

I need this series and I need it NOW!!

This teaser is torture

Oblivion is meant to provide background for the upcoming ClikByte series. This teaser is torture. Now, I have to wait until March to continue reading. Tate James has me hooked again. I would gladly bribe all the people to get this series now.

I’m so excited to see how it turns out!

[Beth Knight · Rating 5 out of 5]

What. Just. Happened. Of course, in true Tate fashion, it ends in a very cringey cliffy. What happened to Noah? Who was involved, I need to know all the things! I am definitely reading the first book and we better find out what happens. Ace, Z or Xavier or all the above? I was rooting for Xavier, but we shall see.

[Katie Komissar · Rating 5 out of 5]

Anything Tate James does is perfection. Including a 46 page novella. I have read novellas where it speeds through the story or it’s just pure smvt or it doesn’t really have a tie in to prepare for the series/next book. This one definitely had a story line and prepared you for the series which I need it NOW! 😩

[Sam · Rating 5 out of 5]

Tate gives us a short teaser in Oblivion on what's to come in the ClikByte series. We get to meet some key characters that we will surely see later on that already has me dying for more. I'm so excited to dive into this series and uncover some questions Oblivion already leaves us with!

[Jan Phillips · Rating 5 out of 5]

Loved it

This was a great taste of what we have in store for us as Tate James fans. 🤞maybe Santa 🎅 finds a typo and it releases in December instead of March.🤞
Now go read this you won’t be disappointed by it. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

[Katryne · Rating 5 out of 5]

I want more!

This was short but super interesting, I'm invested in the story now and I can't wait for the actual first book in this new series! I'm super curious about what's going to happen next.

[Kayleigh · Rating 5 out of 5]

Teaser that leaves you needing the next book.

Loved this teaser! It was short, fast paced, and action packed; it has me so hyped up for book 1 to release.

Loving the classic ‘WTF Tate’ ending (even in a teaser 😅), and I can’t wait to read Noah’s story.

[Bridgette Taylor · Rating 5 out of 5]

Whoa... What was that?!

This book gave me whiplash! I think I felt more emotions from this than I can process. I hope Rich, Z and Ace get what they've got coming in the upcoming books.. I loved this prequel!

[Amanda Winterstein · Rating 4 out of 5]

This is the Prequel to new series:
In true Tate fashion she doesn’t hold back with hitting you right where it hurts. Every emotion can be found in this short novella that will lead us into Noah’s adventures.

[Vicki (athousandbookishlives) · Rating 5 out of 5]

[Misha · Rating 3 out of 5]

Consider me mildly teased. In classic Tate James fashion, we end on a cliffhanger, but for some reason it didn’t feel as devastating as usual. That being said, this is just a short story turned into a prequel, so I’m not prejudging.

I’ll read anything Tate James writes at this point.

[Megan · Rating 4 out of 5]

Cute little into to the next series Tate is writing. Even this comes with a cliffy, but that’s to be expected when it comes to Tate.

[Christina P · Rating 5 out of 5]

What Why

I was sucked in at page 1
I always say to myself don’t do it, wait for more books anddddd I never wait. I can’t, I don’t have any self control

[Bookish Heidi · Rating 5 out of 5]

Just a tiny, torturous tease of what's coming when NoFear drops—and I am FOAMING at the mouth to see where this story goes! 🤘 One thing about me? If Tate writes it, I’m reading it!

[Carla Mclemore · Rating 5 out of 5]

well what a start

What a beginning to what is sure to be another great series from Tate James. That little sneak peek novella left me desperate for more.

[Megsy Reads · Rating 4 out of 5]

Just the Tip

This is a nice little teaser from Tate, excited to see where this one goes. Knowing Tate I’m sure we are in for some killer cliffhangers.

[Melissa · Rating 5 out of 5]

I am so excited about this Series!!!!!

[April (thatbrunettebookworm) · Rating 5 out of 5]

I can’t wait for this series!!

I’m so ready for this series!! This was a short teaser into what happens before the first book in the series and I can’t wait for book one to release!

[Richelle Zirkle · Rating 5 out of 5]

Ugh! The tease that is a Tate book is REAL! I’m so excited to get more of this intriguing series after only this itty bitty taste. Bring on more of Noah and Miles and these spicy guys ASAP!
