The Risk (Mindf*ck #1) by S.T. Abby - Restarting May 15th 2024

They took too much.
Left too little.
I had nothing to lose...until him.

*****************

~Lana~

I didn't expect him.
I didn't want to fall in love.
But I can't let him go.

Logan Bennett makes the world a safer place.
He's brilliant.
He's a hero.
He locks away the sick and depraved.
But while he's saving lives, I'm taking them. Collecting the debts that are owed to me.

Ten years ago, t ...more

[Christina]

OH YES CAN'T WAIT TO REREAD THIS ONE!!!!! Absolutely one of my all time favorite series.

[Danique]

It’s my first time reading! Really excited, I’ve heard many good stories about it :D

[Courtney]

Same.

[Courtney]

Starting this now.

[Courtney]

Chapter one (view spoiler)[ Holy shit! Lana is terrifying. I wonder what makes her want to do this. Im sure it is something horrible with that much hatred. (hide spoiler)]

[Courtney]

Chapter 6 (view spoiler)[ She is getting comfortable with him fast. Good thing he didnt realize she was serious when she said, " I only retain names of people I like or want to kill". (hide spoiler)]

[Courtney]

Chapter 11 (view spoiler)[ Logan left the Boogyman case out while Lana was there and she ended up looking at it. He asked her for help, and she actually had a good theory. I hope it doesnt get Logan looking more into her though or she is in trouble. (hide spoiler)]

[Danique]

I'm hoping to start soon!

[Courtney]

Finished (view spoiler)[ Holy shit! Hadley knows Lana stole the identity of a dead girl!!! Also the Boogyman is after Logan. (hide spoiler)]

[Christina]

So this is my second time reading this book, that's how much I liked it.

I'm not too far in it right now. Logan and Lana have met and she's had her first fun time/killing. I'm at the part where they are talking on the phone and he's asking questions so he can ask her out on a date.

I know how this series goes and ends. Don't just stop after book one you have to read all four to understand everything that's happened to Lana and Logan to understand why they are the way that they are.

[Christina]

Courtney wrote: "Finished [spoilers removed]"

lol. Surprise, now you need to read the other 3 books. They get better and really help you understand Lana better and I'm telling you it's not exactly what you would think but it is a messed up past.

[Courtney]

Christina wrote: "Courtney wrote: "Finished [spoilers removed]"

I literally had to walk out of my room to react because I finished it at two in the morning. Im glad I already own the other 3 books now. I was going to wait for you two to finish before asking if you guys wanted to continue. I can squeeze book 2 in, and maybe book 3 in this month.

[Christina]

I've already read the whole series. i will continue it but probably not this month

[Christina]

Okay I'm at the part were Lana and Logan are wanting to spend more time together but he has to go out of town to follow a lead on the Boogeyman case.

Lana is so conflicted about what she's feeling, which I guess is understandable when all she's ever really known is trauma and bad experiences when it comes to men.

[Christina]

Alright I finally finished this book and really do need to read the next one as soon as possible. I'm surprised I forgot some of the details from the first time reading the series so I for sure will be starting the next one hopefully in the next couple of weeks.

But come on Lana and Logan are polar opposites but you can tell that they are going to have an explosion love story.

Oh! Please use <.spoiler> (but without the . ) when taking about the content! Just so nothing gets spoiled for the people still reading :)

[Danique]

I just finished, I’ll post my updates in a bit! I’m definitely up to read the next one asap👀

[Danique]

Ch 3
(view spoiler)[Damn okay! Logan is a profiler for the fbi, and a gooood one too. Lana is apparently badass but was immediately shook by him lol. I already can’t wait to figure out more about her past, it seems like she was abused by these men she’s killing? Kinda love that she’s taking revenge tbh. And Logan is investigating the case oh no🤣 I already love their interactions, although I don’t completely understand why she’s contacting him while she knows how much trouble that’ll bring? Love the Einstein quotes, although it’s odd haha (hide spoiler)]

[Danique]

Ch 9
(view spoiler)[She better not tell him where she’s from oop. I’m already dreading him founding out, he’ll either have to turn ‘evil’ by not turning her in or he’ll accept it, which also doesn’t seem like his character? Idk, I’m scared. I love her fake job too, I wonder if she actually does that? And Jake sounds great too, can’t wait to meet him. Elise gives me weird vibes, as though she’s into Logan.

Aw they’re already great together, but she’s unnecessarily walking a dangerous line for sure. Wait so she did not lie about her job? I mean, besides the killing. So she used to be Victoria damn, why do they all think she died? I need to know what happened aaaaah! They had sex already!! Loved it though aaah! (hide spoiler)]

[Danique]

Ch 13
(view spoiler)[Omg so her brother was gay and that’s why they killed him and they attacked her bc she slept with people! Damn!!!! Can’t wait for her to kill them ngl. Love that they think she’s dead and Jake is in a wheelchair too lmao.

Everyone is looking into her lmao this is so dangerous. Damn the Bogeyman sounds intense, but it’s so cool that she helps him on the case! Love them solving cases together, still scared of Logan finding out :/ (hide spoiler)]

[Danique]

Finished
(view spoiler)[Why am I scared Jake will die lol. He’s either evil or he’ll die idk. So glad she killed Tyler and Lawrence, assholes. How many were involved in her abuse? Logan knows the identity of the boogeyman!! The boogeyman will go after him shiiit. And Hadley knows who she is holy crap!!! This will be trouble aaah!! Ready for the next one for sure. (hide spoiler)]

[Danique]

I’m burning through these, can we plan the next ones this week/the next so that I can start all of them? You guys can also read it two weeks later then, hopefully that gives you a good timeframe!

[Danique]

Courtney wrote: "Chapter 6 [spoilers removed]"

(view spoiler)[Yeah lmao, I wonder if he thinks back on these comments when he’ll find out the truth about her 🤣 (hide spoiler)]

[Danique]

Courtney wrote: "Finished [spoilers removed]"

(view spoiler)[Yes so cool!! I can’t wait to figure out more about her clearly terrible past (hide spoiler)]

[Danique]

They already sound amazing together for sure. I’d love to read the others ASAP, hopefully this week so I can just read all of them now :)

[Courtney]

I can start book two on the 18th.

[Danique]

Courtney wrote: "I can start book two on the 18th."

Can we plan all the books around that date? Just so I can burn through them now :) You guys will still have 2 weeks after that to comment on the thread!

[Courtney]

Your going to make it from where I put off other buddies to read these. Lol

I own all the books so I am down for that. It helps that they are short.

[Danique]

Courtney wrote: "Your going to make it from where I put off other buddies to read these. Lol

Oops hahaha! Great, I’ll request the threads in a bit! It really does help that they’re so short 🤣

[Maddie]

Oh wow all the 5 stars! :o I can't really see how it's a 5 star based off what I've heard, but I guess I'll need to read it to find out :o

Let's see if I can find the audiobook

[Maddie]

I've got the first one on hold but it'll take a while to get. I'll just have to wait!

Yeah, I’ve requested the threads & read most of the books 🤣 Hopefully the threads will be made soon, I don’t think the have yet. If I have time tomorrow, I’ll make them myself!

[Courtney]

Courtney I'll be removing this off my BR list, I'm going through all of my buddy reads and if they're new series/books I haven't already got immediate plans to read, I'm removing them. I've got too many books going on and I want to change up my reading ways

[Courtney]

Is there another Courtney? I only ask because we didnt set this BR up.

[Maddie]

Ohhh I'm so sure it was you lol maybe it was Ashley

[Courtney]

I just read the series last year. I thought about jumping into this one, but never actually set anything up.

[Maddie]

no worries! either way I'm nit reading it right now hahaha
