Billionaire Season: The Long Hot Summer - Kimball Lee

Do not read.
This is the first thing that comes to my mind when I write about this book. It was a torture and I pretty much skipped most parts of it. The writing style is so bad that I wonder whether the author has ever read any book and did she even show this to an editor? If she did, then fire that editor right away.
The characters are weird. I honestly have no other words for them. Storyline couldn't be more absurd. But the worst of all is the writing style. Kimball Lee, I am afraid hasn't mastered the art of writing. She isn't even an amateur. That's how bad it is. The dialogues in the book go on and on, I mean come on, no one speaks that much. The characters are so straight forward they say everything. EVERYTHING.
I couldn't have chosen a worse book to read. I would give this a 2/10 rating. Which in case you didn't know, means poor.
Usually I am quite happy if I get to download a book for free on Kindle but in this case- why god, why did I download it? And why is it free?? You shouldn't lure people just to torture them.
The only good thing about the book is it ends soon. Less pages. Never thought a day would come when I wanted a book to end. Another new experience for me.

Till the next read peeps

Pain

What nobody told us  it never gets better it only gets older sometimes duller.  It stays with you like that ache that you are used to one that doesn't hurt anymore just exists. One fine day you woke up  not the same, an ache where there was none now a part of you follows you where you go grows as you grow older.

Book Review: Leah On The Offbeat

You know it is a good book when it ends up schooling you. I am too old to read high school drama anymore but seeing people rave about Simon vs The Homosapiens Agenda and Leah On The Offbeat, I finally gave LOTO a try. And boy am I glad. Initially sceptical, because the writing style is aimed at teenagers, the first few chapters were a bit difficult to get through. I found the language exceedingly plain, it was overall too kiddish.  It was when the characters developed in the next few chapters, that I was hooked. I have yet to read such great character development in a high school book.  Let's start off with Leah. She is your average protagonist -  angry at the world, a broken family, overthinking things, overweight, smart, the only difference, she isn't lonely. She has a lot of friends. Oh and the fact that she is bi, secretly. As we delve further into the book, her layers peel off. She is in love with a girl who is dating her best friend who happens to...

Reader

As the title says. I am a reader. I average  on mostly 1 book a day, sometimes even more. It's a hobby or you  can even call it an obsession. I need to read, I have to. When I have nothing else to do, guess what I do? Obviously read. It is like I crave stories, I crave an escape. I want to know, I want to feel, be something I never will. In reading I thrive. In books I live. These words are like food for my soul. And most importantly i read everything. Anything i can get my hands on. I love fiction- Jeffrey Archer being my favourite, John Grisham not too far behind and Suzanne Collins is always there. But recently I have been reading a lot of Romance and seems like I have fallen in love. With  the genre, not literally. So that being said, I feel it's  only fitting that I atleast review the books I have read and share my views with others. Happy reading everyone. Xoxo
