[Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd]

Gisbelle and I will be reading ! I know this is very late notice but we just decided to do it! Sorry for anyone who is inconvenienced but we will always be here if you read it and want to chat!

[Gisbelle]

I'm starting now :D

[Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd]

Me too! :D Yay!

[Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd]

I just got to Chapter 3, ahah! I am reading so slow! I always read slow at the beginning of books though. How far are you?

[Gisbelle]

Finished chapter 1

Erin (view spoiler)[ is a great sister, I think. Even Amy is a real pain, she still puts up with everything. I'm not a fan of Amy right now. (hide spoiler)]

[Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd]

That was my exact thoughts as well.

(view spoiler)[I do not like Amy either as of now. She is the total opposite of me. (hide spoiler)]

I really like Erin's character though. I am excited to see where this one goes! :D

[Gisbelle]

:D I like her too. Ok back to reading

[Gisbelle]

Finished chapter 2

Amy is hilarious... Still she is a tad dramatic.

Lines than got me laugh
(view spoiler)[
Look at us, Erin. You’re tall, blond, and graceful, and I’m—well—short, round, and fully packed

We’re different, that’s all. You got the looks, talent, and brains, and I got”—Amy tousled her shoulder-length curly dark hair—“dandruff

Oh boy, Erin is crushing on her sister's boyfriend... It's going to be ugly. (hide spoiler)]

She is hilarious! :D She's getting better for me!

Yeah, chapter three explains some more of her crush on Travis. I am on page 26! :D

[Gisbelle]

Great! Just finished chapter 3

Amy (view spoiler)[ and her positive attitude is kinda growing on me. I'm starting to like her. But Erin and her crush on Travis is not looking good now. Poor girl! (hide spoiler)]

[Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd]

Amy is also growing on me. I know! I feel so bad! :/ I am just starting chapter 5! :D

[Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd]

(view spoiler)[ I feel really bad for Erin. It seems like Amy is always the one people are talking about. She has a boyfriend who Erin is crushing on. No matter what, everything comes back to Amy. (hide spoiler)]

[Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd]

Just finished chapter 6

(view spoiler)[ Things are about to really start picking up. Oh boy. :/ *Chewing fingernails* (hide spoiler)]

[Gisbelle]

Just finished chapter 5

Amy (view spoiler)[ so she drives to get some soda... I think she might get into accident or something. I don't think I like Erin much now. Her crushing on Travis and jealousy over Amy is ridiculous. (hide spoiler)]

[Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd]

That is what I predicted would happen as well. And I know. I am definitely liking Amy a lot more than Erin now. Funny how fast you can change your opinion on someone! :)

[Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd]

On page 48: (view spoiler)[ Erin's mom is driving me nuts. Blaming it on her... Ugh. I really do feel bad though for Erin. I really don't think it is right for her mother to flip out on her because yelling and screaming and flipping out on someone will not help anything or anyone, the only thing it will do is make the situation worse and get everyone involved more worked up. (hide spoiler)]

[Gisbelle]

Right? I just finished chapter 6. Guess I'll read more tomorrow. This book is going to get more emotional and I don't think I'll be able to sleep after that.

Me too. I have to catch up on another buddy read anyway. So this will work out good! :D

[Gisbelle]

Great! Normally, I wake up around 5 to read, so I might finish it before you wake up lol...

[Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd]

Haha okay! And I just got all caught up on my other BR so I may read more of this before I go to bed! :D

[Gisbelle]

Awesome! I feel that it is getting good :)

[Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd]

Gisbelle wrote: "Awesome! I feel that it is getting good :)"

Me too. Where I left it is really getting good!

[Gisbelle]

You are in which chapter?

[Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd]

I just finished 7.

[Gisbelle]

I think I'll stop after chapter 10 and read the rest tomorrow. In the beginning of chapter 7 now.

[Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd]

Okay! :D

[Gisbelle]

I finished. Well, (view spoiler)[ this is probably my least favorite among her books I've read. I did cry, though.

It felt like it was a bit drag, so I was a bit bored. I loved the piece of writing Amy wrote. That scene was perhaps the one that move me the most.

That Travis went out with that girl was a little frustrating. Well, maybe it was not abnormal that people moves on that fast. But it would have been better if Ms. McDaniel had added during the funeral. (hide spoiler)]

[Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd]

Okay, I am not going to press your spoiler because I am not finished. I will finish in a little bit! Only 3 stars? Hmmm!

[Gisbelle]

We'll see if you think differently :)

[Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd]

Okay! And you cried? :)

[Gisbelle]

Duh lol

[Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd]

lol! :D I knew you would no matter what! haha!

[Gisbelle]

I'm hopeless, I know.

[Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd]

haha! I really wish I cried while reading books though. I feel heartless. :/

[Gisbelle]

lol Books affect readers differently. No, I don't think you are heartless. If you have time, try ... Who knows? You might cry eventually :D

[Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd]

True. And okay! If I see it I will definitely pick it up! wow, that's a long book for her: 256 pages!

[Gisbelle]

Yeah, and probably the best also :) I have like 15 more of her books... but I totally cannot read 2 in a row. My heart won't survive the pain.

[Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd]

Yeah, I understand. :) And I need to start collecting her books because she is an amazing author! I am still on page 61 (beginning of chapter nine) because I had to give the dog a bath :( LOL! Off to read! :)

I totally agree with everything you said! :D I loved Breathless a lot more though. 3 stars for me as well. :/ But I loved Amy's writing! :)

[Gisbelle]

That writing was so nice, right? A bit silly, but so sweet :D

[Gisbelle]

will you read ? I bought so I have both of them... I'm not sure when, but I think I'll read it also.

[Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd]

Gisbelle wrote: "That writing was so nice, right? A bit silly, but so sweet :D"

Yes. It was very sweet. :D

[Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd]

I might if I can get it! :D I like your bind up edition! I will look for it when I am getting books but I am not sure if I will be able to find it!

[Gisbelle]

Yeah, I'll let you know if it is worth it. Judging from the synopsis, I'm not so sure :| But it's short, so we'll see :D

[Jacquelyn, thebrunettebooknerd]

Okay! :D
