4.5 Lovely Stars🌟🌟🌟🌟.5 Love is friendship set on fire... This book was an absolute pleasure to read... One of the absolute best parts of being a book blogger/reviewer is the exposure you get to so many amazing authors you wouldn’t otherwise be exposed to... this book is a perfect example of that....

Absolutely ridiculous. I really didn't like this. The author thinks she is sex-positive, but really doesn't understand what that means. From the first chapter, when Rosa is giving "drunken BJs" (who writes like that?) to her roommate whenever she can't pay her rent, I was pretty horrified by sex in

Not worth the effort Honestly baffled with the 5 star ratings and gushing reviews - the people in charge of the PR campaign are working overtime. This book wasn’t worth the time and effort: poorly written, poorly edited, predictable... I could go on. With boring characters, unnecessary crude sexual r Leggi tutto
