I loved the stinking heck out this book! It had a bit of a KA vibe going on in it (I seem to be saying that a lot in reviews lately??).

I loved both the hero (Jack) and the heroine (Jenn) though why writers always have to make journalists to stupid to live is beyond me. "Oh look, there is a serial killer on the loose, I think I'll stick my nose into the investigation, thus making myself the focus of the killer!!" Do these people not watch TV, or movies?? *lol*

The mystery of who the baddie was was pretty decent, though I did figure it out fairly early. I could also have done without the plethora of pussy that Jack seemed to have worked himself through in their tiny town. The guy seemed to have a taste for crazy, since every one of them that showed up had "THE CRAZY EYES" *lol* Luckily Jennifer took it all in stride and it didn't cause a ton of unnecessary conflict.

Overall it was a decent read with likable characters, hot sex, and a good plot!

Side note: Every time I read "Ben and Gerry" together I developed a sudden craving for ice cream...*lol*

if you're thinking about reading this here's what you should know:

 

•  you will read the word "breathe" many many times. so just be prepared.

 you will "HATE..hate, hate , double hate . Loathe entirely..." Carol.

• (every time I read the name Carol I get this image of "Carol" from The Walking dead.)
• Think to yourself - "What the F*ck, really? F*ck this book."

then you'll tell yourself you're gonna put it down because it's so frustrating because Emma's thought process is stupid.  Then Evan will turn up on the page and before you know it you'll be smiling and reading way past your bedtime because you've told yourself..."just one more page . I have to see if Emma smarten ups."

 

I'm not saying this book is great. It's not. But it had something that made me keep reading and put the next book on hold.

   ...oh yea, about that. If you're gonna read this one, you're gonna need to put the next book, Barely Breathing, on hold too.

 

Things that didn't make sense to me:

 

The hate Carol has for Emma. I need a reason. I don't matter how small. I just need to hear her reasoning. Like maybe Emma is really her husband's child? Or she reminds her of a girl she hates...something!

 

The Drew attraction. that didn't work for me. 

 

(spoiler show)

 

 

on to the next book....

 

 

I loved this book. At times though I felt like I had skipped a couple pages or something-it seemed to jump around (like, someone is gone one minute, and then back the next! I was sure I missed something!). That aside, I did really enjoy the book; I liked the characters and I felt that it was pretty realistic for the most part. Its definitely HS drama, so if you don't like that kind of stuff, you won't like this. I, however, love it!

I'll be a sobbing mess if i come watching this tragic emotional disturbing irritating movie in the future. (LOL) Imagine 3 movies of just Reason to Breathe book.

Good luck with that.
