Wow, what a huge surprise this was! Unexpected layers, a heroine who develops over the course of the book, and a seriously, seriously crush-worthy guy.

So happy that you enjoyed EASY. It's such a non-hyped find and one that needs more attention.

I knew you would like this Wendy!!! I am so happy you did too. I think this has been my very favorite book this year. :)
Oh yay--I'm glad you liked it too, Crystal! This one totally took me by surprise. It's sort of everything I'd hoped for in Slammed (which had a lot of buzz) but didn't quite get.
Look forward to comparing notes soon. :)

Hey Wendy! I know this was awhile ago, but I was wondering what your content recommendation was? I don't like reading steamy stuff, and I just don't know how to shelve this for me! Can you tell me if/what happens sex-wise?
that makes me sound creepy
Oh yes, I liked this one a lot, Rachel. :)
Thalia--I don't know that I'm the best person to ask? The romantic scenes aren't objectionably explicit from what I remember, but there are definitely some steamy scenes in it. If you're worried, you might ask someone who's read it more recently to spoil it for you. Sorry not to be more help!

Thalia - If you're a fade-to-black reader, this isn't for you. It's sensual and well written, but definitely sexy.
Wendy - I just love this story and a few of my friends have been turned off by the subject matter which is the very reason I love it. Such a serious issue and such great characters.
I just had a look at your shelves, Sophie--you definitely need to read The Sea of Tranquility! I was suspicious of all the hype, but I thought that it was amazing. Similarly mature themes, and more "NA" without being shallow.
Yes! I think you'd love it. Um...let me know if I'm right, hah. :) It's a self-pubbed book that got picked up by S&S for traditional publication, coming out this June.
Whoa, it only took 20 minutes to persuade you! hee hee. If only all my friends were as easily convinced, I'd have to spend much less time writing review. ;) Can't wait to see what you think of it!
AHAHAHA! I read through the sample and like I said, I trust you. I promise to update you when I read it. :)
Thanks a lot for this review! I saw your review and got the book. I finished it in two sittings. I just couldn't get up from my couch on sunday X)
Aw, I'm so glad you enjoyed it, Franziska! :) I was telling Sophie above that The Sea of Tranquilityis really good too, if you ever get yourself off the couch. ;)
Ah, thanks a lot for te tip! I'll be looking into that one, too. Somehow it is nice that now the "Contemporary Novel" seems to be resurfacing. No vampires, no werewolves, no one can fly. Have to get used to that again :D
I really love a good contemporary too, especially as a break between PNR and dystopians and sci fis (which is mostly what I read), but I'm a lot pickier about them. So it's wonderful to come across one that's really, really good. :)
I'm so glad I read your review on this because I would have never read this book otherwise. Absolutely loved it and ADORED LM!
