The Amish fascinate me. Really, they do. Their rules, their beliefs, their antifeminist ways; a lot of if it actually seems kind of ridiculous, but regardless if you consider them as a cult, or counterculture religion, I can't see anyone not being intrigued by their ways. This is a novel about love:...

After eagerly anticipating Karen Ann Hopkin's debut novel for some time, I read it literally in one sitting, curled up on the couch. Temptation is one of those books that, even a few days later, I'm still puzzling over it, thinking back on it, and wondering where I stand. What I really loved a gre...

I finished this book last night and still I'm still not sure how I feel about the book. Was it a good story? Yes. Did I enjoy the story? A little bit. More than anything, I was curious about what was going to happen next and that was why I kept reading. The author sucks you in with the romance betwe...

The writing was just okay and Rose and Noah have some major insta-love issues and they could really use a reality check.Rose and Noah both irritated me. Both are selfish and ...

E-galley received from Netgalley for review.Temptation by Karen Ann Hopkins called to me when I first saw it on Netgalley. So I requested it, and then started reading it. I liked it, and was hooked enough to finish it quickly, but it also made me quite angry. Not to mention that I didn't know it is ...

Temptation was a great story about forbidden love and the lengths that those in love will go to be with the one they love.I think that she did great job with research because everything with the Amish seemed authentic, and it felt like I was being immersed into another culture.The dual perspective f...

Temptation was a very interesting read. This is the first time that I really don't know what to rate a book. I enjoyed Temptation, but I did find certain parts of it to be unrealistic and rushed.I really enjoyed the fact that Hopkins combined two different worlds and easily turned it into one in the...

Normally I won't touch a YA romance, unless it has a speculative element, but Temptation hooked me at "Amish". This is a romance with big obstacles and true conflicts to overcome. It's not melodramatic, and not contrived. And what's more, I really hoped Rose and Noah would work it out - and I almost...
