I tried, I really tried...

This story really had a lot of potential... However, it was rushed in most places, which created a huge disconnect.

There was definitely drama, it just wasn't explored enough to explain why the characters responded how they did with one another.

It was like reading a summary of a really long story. This book should have been at least twice as long, and each scene more thoroughly examined.

I have read a lot of books in my life. I have loved just about every one of them. I started to read slammed about 2 weeks ago, however with all the stuff going on around my house I was only getting to read small pieces here and there. I wasn't giving myself a chance to connect to the book. After about 56% in I finally decided to just take a day and relax and finish it. I truly just wanted to move onto the next book on my to be read list. So, after my daycare kids left Thursday I sat down and tur ...more

There are three questions every woman should be able to answer yes to before they commit to a man:
1. Does he treat you with respect at all times?
2. If he is the exact same person twenty years from now that he is today, would you still want to marry him?
3. Does he inspire you to want to be a better person?

loving advice from a mother to her 18yr old daughter. This book really tugged at my emotional strings. I will say though that in the beginning it comes across as every other YA book that you rea ...more

Loved this book! I planned on reading for just an hour beforebed, but instead I ended up staying awake half the night to finish it and I have the bloodshot eyes to prove it. I think I went through every emotion possible. This is one of the best books I've read in awhile and I can't wait to start the next book in this series. ...more

This book kind of blew me away. Slammed is a romance, but with such complex characters, complicated family relationships, life-altering events, it is so much more then that. With so much going on, I was worried that things might get lost, or that maybe the author was throwing too much out there at once... but that was SO not the case. It was perfect. I loved everything about this book!!

There is good reason for this novel to have an average of 4.54 stars - it is truly a beautifully written story about love and family. It is absolutely a 5 star book. It was hard to put this one down. Immediately moving on to the sequel in the series

I love that Will Cooper was 'healthy'. I've been reading all of these books lately about these messed up men (Travis, Kellan etc) and I just needed to believe that men aren't all effed up. I would rather have Will than any of those other fools. Layken was cool too, but I hate her because she has Will. ...more
