This book is labeled as both NA and YA. It does start out in high school, but it maybe a mature YA book.

Please make sure to state what chapter you are on and use spoiler tags when postings so everyone can read at their own pace and still join in!

[Deanna]

I'm in! Sept. 3 sounds like a great start date!

[Chris]

Yay!! Thanks, Deanna!!

[Chris]

Is this the first book in the series?

[Chris]

Yes and I believe each book is about different characters from the series.

I can see you give it only 2 stars. It is not good?

I know right! I even forgot that I had read it at first. I think it was just me! All the friends on my friends list gave it 4 or 5 stars. I don't remember why I rated it so low, so I'm going to read it again. I remember the story and it was good, but there most of been something to set me off to give it 2 stars. There are just some types of romance stories that bother me, like I can't stand Abbi Glines books and everyone else seems to love her, so I think it was just me! haha

ETA: I remember I got mad at her friend I think her name was Megan at the end of the story, but the story didn't deserve 2 stars for it.

[Erika]

I'm in!! Cant wait to see what it was that made you give it 2*. Lol

[Chris]

I don't think I'm ready to give this author another chance yet. I was just reading " Kick Push"

[Deanna]

FYI-- If you have Amazon Prime, you can borrow More Than This for free if you haven't already borrowed for September. ;)

[Vega_girl]

Awesome!! I am in!!!

[Deanna]

So, I made the mistake of starting More Than This last night at 9 pm. I stayed up WAY too late reading it. For some reason, I thought yesterday was the 3rd! Sorry for starting early!
Chapter 2 (view spoiler)[ I feel so bad for Mikayla! How horrible was prom night! :( (hide spoiler)]

[Erika]

I know Deanna!!!

Chapter 10 (view spoiler)[ I know that Mikayla and Jake are kind of a fast thing in a crazy and horrible time but oh my how I love their dynamic already! Megan is a whore, no calls or texts to check on her????? (view spoiler)[ (hide spoiler)] (hide spoiler)]

I agree Chapter 10(view spoiler)[Mikayla and Jake have great chemistry and Megan is awful!!! (hide spoiler)]

[Emily]

I happen to already have this on my kindle and haven't read it yet. I'll start today and join the discussion.

I agree Chapter 10[spoilers removed]"

I agree with both of you. I didn't get a chance to check back today but I stayed up until like 12:30 last night reading it. I finished today (view spoiler)[ I absolutely loved it! If Kick Push had been like this one, I would have liked it more. I loved Mikayla and Jake! I think Jake is my new book boyfriend. And that ending! Logan! What?!?! I am going to be reading the rest of the series for sure! (hide spoiler)]

[Erika]

Chapter 44 (view spoiler)[ I can't take it anymore, how the hell have they not kissed and doe almost everything else? Also, how are you mine but not my boyfriend or girlfriend?????? They need to hurry this up, even I'm getting impatient, poor Jake. (view spoiler)[ (hide spoiler)] (hide spoiler)]

[Deanna]

Erika wrote: "Chapter 44 [spoilers removed]"

Yes! (view spoiler)[I totally agree with all that! Poor Jake! He's getting such mixed signals! (hide spoiler)]

[Erika]

So I have also finished. I so can not wait for the read of this series. Who's up for another buddy read next week????

I would be, but I couldn't wait and started reading it. I'm addicted. I can't put them down!!! But I will definitely check in and comment! ;)

[Emily]

I finished. (view spoiler)[ The dragging on of that relationship was very frustrating and all the times they got jealous of one another was a little irritating, especially since other than when he got jealous jake was a super sweet guy. I had a hard time believing that side of him. I also had a hard time believe they never kiss when they do everything else.
I do want to read on because I'm very curious about Logan's story, but I don't own that one so I'm going to have to wait since I probably have over 500 other unread stories on my kindle. I'd feel better getting my tbr down a little. (hide spoiler)]

Emily -- I bought the rest of the series on Kindle. I think I can loan them each of them once for 14 days. If you want, send me a private message with your Kindle address and I will loan the next book to you.

[Chris]

I finished my re-read of this one and the 2 stars I gave it originally was too harsh but (view spoiler)[ I felt like the first half of the book was really good then the angst sort of wore on me. I loved Jake he was great, but mikayka frustrated me. I needed to be more understanding with all She'd gone through! Logan's story next looks good!! (hide spoiler)]

Okay great, thanks. I'll do that.

[Emily]

Were we going to read More than her?

[Erika]

I hope so.... who's in?

[Deanna]

Am I allowed to comment on your spoilers if I already read it? ;)

[Erika]

Of course, just post spoiler too. I'd love to hear what you think!

[Emily]

I just finished More than Her so if you guys start it I'll join the discussion.

[Chris]

You two are all over it already done reading it!! Erika when do you want to start. I think I could finish the book I'm on tomorrow.

[Erika]

I can start tomorrow that's good for me.

[Chris]

Perfect!! Tomorrow it is!!

[Erika]

Yay!!!!

[DJacelyn]

Chap3 (view spoiler)[God, you must think I'm crazy, and my mate Logan, spilling his beer on you... Jake is so cute and funny when he said that *giggling to myself* (hide spoiler)]

[DJacelyn]

[Vega_girl]

[Vega_girl]

Just finished!!!(view spoiler)[ I agree 100% with you ladies!! This book was amazing and we'll written and for me a solid 4.5*.......until 90%......I mean seriously how mnay times could they keep having the same misunderstanding!!! I understood it when it was all fresh and everything just happened, but seriously they lived together and like Erika said did everything else!!!! So annoying!!! I can't wait to here Logan's story...although I hope that Megan isn't the one he ends up with!!! (hide spoiler)] I can't believe I missed the boat on this buddy read!!
