 ♥ Rebecca ♥ | 1653 comments Beautiful Bastard (Beautiful Bastard, #1) by Christina Lauren . I was expecting to be disappointed by this judging from all the mediocre reviews. But I am loving it! It's so addictive! It's one if those books I can't stop thinking about while I'm not reading. At work and imagining all the scenarios of what might happen next. Counting down the hours till I will next have a chance to read. Actually, that sounds like pretty much every book I read. Haha, but whatever, some more than others. And this definitely falls under the more category. :P

Exactly! That's what makes it so creepy and completely captivating, you just get sucked in as though you're actually in the story. He's an incredible writer!

Yeah I had to get through it so I could concentrate on my review read, it's just too heavy to be doubling up for this one. SA is very dark, sexy, and disturbing, which I love!

I thought it was an indie being published for the first time. Doesn't fan fic mean it was inspired by something else? No idea what it would be based on.

Technically fan fics are inspired by a previous release, but to be honest I never really see it. Sempre and Twilight?? I didn't follow a correlation for those!

I didnt know Sempre was a fanfic too. Yeah, there is nothing Twilighty about this book. Most notable difference would be Chloe. Nothing like Bella! Chloe is one wild and vulgar woman who really enjoys her sexcapades. She is hilarious. :P

I was reading The Fault in Our Stars by John Green but my Mom is dying of SCLC right now and after reading about 5 chapters it looked like I should save this one for a later date.

I'm sorry too. I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers. My grandma died of cancer just a year ago so I know how you feel. Feel free to come to me if you need to talk.

Aww Tracy, I'm sorry to hear about your mom. My grandma is not winning her battle with breast cancer, it was too far along. That's why I couldn't finish it either. My thoughts are with you<3


message 20538: by ♥ Rebecca ♥ (new)

 ♥ Rebecca ♥ | 1653 comments Whenever I write a reveiw for a book I always also add all the quotes from the book that I enjoyed so they show up with my review. If there arent any, or enough of my faves, I add them myself. Since Beautiful Bastard (Beautiful Bastard, #1) by Christina Lauren is a new book, it only had 1 quote up. So I added my faves, all 21 of them. My fingers hurt now from all the typing. :P

On to Falling Kingdoms (Falling Kingdoms, #1) by Morgan Rhodes .

I have never read 50 Shades cuz BDSM freaks the hell out of me, and I dont like seeing meek women being taken advantage of. Beautiful Bastard (Beautiful Bastard, #1) by Christina Lauren has neither of those things. But I guess I cant really say how it compares since I havent read 50.

I get my books from the library so I dont spend money unless I know I'll love it.

I dont like the controlling men, alpha male types. Hated Travis Maddox. I dont know if that is what Christian was like, but I would assume so. Bennett from BB is controlling and a perfectionist when it comes to work, and that is why he and Chloe at first hate each other. But when it comes to Chloe he is the furthest thing from in control. She has all the power in this relationship. :P She could make him beg. And above all is the humour.

One of my other friends just posted a 1 star review for Beautiful Bastard (Beautiful Bastard, #1) by Christina Lauren so maybe you should just save yourself the trouble and not read it. :P As much as I would like to imagine I could get someone else to love it too, it doesnt seem likely. I think I am alone in this. :P

Yeah, I think I'm in the minority but I just can't see the parallels or similarities to Twilight in any of the fan fics that have come out.

Wowza....took me THREE DAYS (that has got to be a record for me), but I finally got through Soul Avenged (Sons of Wrath #1) by Keri Lake . Highly recommend this to PNR fans that like the darker reads, it was really addicting and was just an incredibly well-written story. Just give yourself a few days to read it, it's a monster read!! =)

Need to move to something lighter for a bit, so I'm picking up a nice short smut read with Game for Marriage (Game for It, #1) by Karen Erickson !
