Seduction and Snacks by Tara Sivec - Restarting June 19th 2020

[Jaye]

Claire is a twenty-something, single mom that grudgingly helps her best friend sell sex toys while she attempts to make enough money to start her own business to give her foul-mouthed, but extremely loveable (when he's asleep) toddler a better life.

When Carter, the one-night-stand from her past that changed her life forever, shows up in her hometown bar without any recollection of her besides her unique chocolate scent, Claire will make it a point that he remembers her this time.

With Carter's undisguised shock at suddenly finding out he has a four-year-old son and Claire's panic that her stretch marks and slim to none bedroom experience will send the man of her dreams heading for the hills, the pair will do whatever they can to get their happily ever after.

Warning: contains explicit sex, profanity and enough sarcasm to choke a horse.

I have no words for this besides wHAT the fuck lmao

what in the world WAS this book. like I picked it cause of a prompt and I didn't think it would be GOOD but ??????

Let's first discuss how a romance book, largely read by women, spent it's first 10% alienating over half the women reading it because it couldn't STOP talking about how horrible kids were

Added to that all the gross talk between the men like anyone actually wants to read about that and how the dude is "growing a vagina"

[janel]

^^^^ the straight up homophobia and slut shaming in this book is so disgusting I just.... All the reviews are like "this book is so funny!!!!" so while I didn't expect a great book I didn't expect one with CONSTANT toxic masculinity and shitting on every other woman just because they've have multiple partners.

The Drew dude literally fkd 834587638742 women and it's just a funny quirk but Carter's ex "has a clown car vagina" YIIIIKES

[Jaye]

Y I K E S. I didn't find a single part funny besides how embarrassing the entire book was, oof.

[janel]

When will the memory of how often a 4 year old was used for dirty jokes in this book fade... really uncomfortable honestly.

[janel]

Like there were a couple times where the writing didn't seem bad and I was like "oh is this about to have a good moment???" but NOPE

SAME. I though the idea could have been wholesome but then yeah fuck no.

[janel]

i've been trying to think of a single good thing about this - that it's sex positive??????? It's not even that because they make fun of every sex+ woman outside their immediate group.

I just wanted a cute "we found each other again" story not... all this

Ch. 1 - (view spoiler)[I already remember why I loved this book so much lol. Claire is so outspoken yet not at the same time. I like the snarky and immature comments 🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️ She's only saying what we've all thought at one point lmao. Loved this line, "Hugs Not Drugs.. We showed them. You don't have to choose, you can totally have both and not die."
I’m not getting negative vibes but maybe it’s cause I too am not the hugest fan of kids lol (hide spoiler)]

[❀ Crystal ✿ -]

Ch. 5 - (view spoiler)[wow, looney tunes porn, I have no words lol (hide spoiler)]

[❀ Crystal ✿ -]

Ch. 10 (view spoiler)[well the cats outta the bag now. At least the truth is out there. Seriously though her bff Liz is only making this better for me 😂 (hide spoiler)]

[❀ Crystal ✿ -]

Ch. 15 (view spoiler)[Gavin is hilarious (hide spoiler)]

[❀ Crystal ✿ -]

Ch. 20 (view spoiler)[oh no no no tell me that didn’t just happen 😂😂😂 these two need to learn how to lock doors 😂 but holy hell when the camera crew walked in I lost it (hide spoiler)]

[❀ Crystal ✿ -]

Finished
(view spoiler)[I loved how it ended with Gavin having the last line. But damn if that end wasn’t abrupt and kinda out of nowhere. I know the series goes on but I really could have used an epilogue. While I still enjoyed this book I can’t say I loooooved it like I did years ago when I read it.
I see the comments above and honestly I must just have lower standards 🤷🏼‍♀️🤣 (hide spoiler)]

[Mummy's Naughty Corner]

10%

(view spoiler)[ Lol that scene from his point off view from the morning after. My dick it's bleeding. (hide spoiler)]

[Mummy's Naughty Corner]

32%

(view spoiler)[ God that dinner. How embarrassing but it's the sort of thing that would happen to me minus the hot guy. (hide spoiler)]

[Mummy's Naughty Corner]

75%

(view spoiler)[ These people are all crazy. The things they say. All the times they thought things but have actually said them out loud. Plus that child OMG. (hide spoiler)]

[Mummy's Naughty Corner]

Finished

(view spoiler)[ Okay well I completely enjoyed this apart from one part. The part where she thinks her dad is Gay. It was quite uncomfortable and she came across as homophobic. (hide spoiler)]

Yeah that part made me laugh.

(view spoiler)[ All the characters bring a crazy vibe in their own way. (hide spoiler)]

[Mummy's Naughty Corner]

❀ Crystal ✿ - wrote: "Ch. 20 [spoilers removed]"

(view spoiler)[ Yeah that part seemed so random ut so hilarious at the same time and the fact that we had the scene afterwards where it was on the TV that cracked me up. (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[ The book was good and I think I would have given it 5 stars if we read it before cupidty. That book has ruined all books like this as I now have a standard for snarky females and weird and explicit fun. (hide spoiler)]
