Sure! Me and Mona are going to be starting Slammed tomorrow!

[Mona]

yaaay are you ready for tomorrow? ?

[prag ♻]

Mmhmm, I am so ready for this series.

This has been sitting on my TBR pile for ages, I've finally started!

Nothing much has happened yet, except for a brief introduction of Lake's background.

[Mona]

finished chapter 1
I agree with you I expected a stronger start like maybe someday or confess. but it is still good. Let's see what will happen.
(view spoiler)[
is it just me who finds what happens between Lake & Will a little bit fast?!
the thing that really annoy me that I discovered that this book is going to be only in Lake POV. (hide spoiler)]

[Mona]

finished chapter 2
(view spoiler)[
WoW this was so emotional. Will's life and the slam. too much happened in one chapter. but I think I understand why it is so fast between Lake & Will because of Will. I like his character and I like that he is expressing himself so easly by The slam or by touches. I liked that he said that he liked her so fast just because he really felt it.
I wish if there were some parts from his POV. at least we can know more about him through his slam (hide spoiler)]

[Mona]

finished chapter 3
(view spoiler)[
ohhhh this is so Ezria *PLL*
actually I didn't expect this to happen. and here I thought this is going to be the easiest love story Colleen have written. turns out it is one of the most forbidden relationships a student/teacher affair. (hide spoiler)]

[Mona]

Finished chapter 5
(view spoiler)[
I'm really loving everything about this book. I can understand Will's decision even though it is a little bit cruel but really there is nothing they can do except having a secret affair. (hide spoiler)]

[prag ♻]

Ch 12
(view spoiler)[It's not very powerfully written. The writing could have been so much better, the storyline too. Oe thing I'm loving about this is the poetry- it's amazing!

I never thought their mom was seeing someone, but CANCER? Freaking cancer? Come on. Please don't tell me she's gonna die and will and kel and caulder and laymen will become on big happy family. I mean, that's not very likely, but still.

[prag ♻]

Almost done with slammed
(view spoiler)[Ugh, why can't Lake and Will make up their minds? One minute theyer kissing, next fighting. Again and again. Sooo repetitive. (hide spoiler)]

[prag ♻]

Finished!
(view spoiler)[OMFG AGH LIKKE WHATTT the last bit totally made up for all the shitty parts in this book and the poems are so deep so amazing so just everything ajgfaqxcjhgffcwqkhgvv (hide spoiler)]

[prag ♻]

Why is there another book? The ending was alright, if not perfect. Why ruin ittttttt?

This is can't be happening!! Why to put all these kids who suffer the death of their parents or being dumped by their parents in one story this is so cruel why Colleen why!!? Wasn't Will's story miserable enough you have to make Lake's mother dying too!!!
How it is possible to love and hate a story at the same time ? (hide spoiler)]

Started Point of Retreat
(view spoiler)[It's alright, the story is stretching a lot. I don't understand why Vaughn had to show up. (hide spoiler)]

[Mona]

Finished chapter 5 of This girl
(view spoiler)[
As I expected the breakup scene with Vaughn was so cruel. She is so selfish and insensitive. I really hate her so much.
I'm really enjoying this I know I just read the same story two days ago but I already wanted to know what was Will think and how he felt like all the time. So I don't mind the repeating. Maybe there will be something new. (hide spoiler)]

[Mona]

Finished chapter 8 "This girl"
(view spoiler)[
I don't know why I still crying over this story!!!!
So happy to read this book even though there is nothing new here. I love how Will describe his feelings for Lake.
And that scene with her mother was so good and so emotional. I can't imagine the pain she felt knowing she will leave her children to suffer like Will and his brother. (hide spoiler)]

[Mona]

chapter 11 *This Girl*
(view spoiler)[
I was hoping to know Will's reaction after she read that poem in class calling him names. now I'm going to know :D :D :D (hide spoiler)]

Hope you can finish it this time. Try to not expect something new to happen. Just enjoy Will's POV, he is really one of the most characters I loved their reactions and emotions. Enjoy and I'm happy you joined us.
