This book wowed me on so many levels. I’d heard of Leah Raeder before and had begun one of her other books, but really didn’t like the subject matter (a cam girl), so set it down. I decided to give her a second chance when I saw the reviews that were gushing about her prose. I’m so glad that I did b...
I have to admit I went into this book with high expectations. I think that is part of why I did not enjoy Unteachable as much as I could have. High expectations always ruin the reading experience because it is seldom that they can be met. The other part why I did not enjoy Unteachable more than I di...
Wow. Ungh. I have no idea how to rate this. I’m not even sure I LIKED it, even though it is unquestionably a good book. It pulled me all over the place: made me frustrated, anxious and uncomfortable. And at times amused. Leah Raeder, I almost hate you for building tension little by little throug...
As someone who is not into angsty, explicit, NA romances, I liked this book very much. It is all about the writing, I think. How would I know anything about writing, I am not sure. The best example I can give is that I felt such an empathy with Maise. Generally, I like or dislike characters. In this...
I didn’t think it was possible to have a dark romance that was also really, really sweet at its core. But Leah Raeder has done it and for me, to give a New Adult romance such a high rating is a testament to how good this book was. First off, Raeder’s writing is so beautiful and intense. The story is...
This subject is taboo yet I was still drawn to this book like a bee to honey, I just could not get enough of it. Maise and Mr. Wilke a.k.a Evan just couldn’t get enough of each other either and that was before she realized he was her teacher. This attraction acted like a hot poker in a fire, it just...
No soy fan de los "romances" entre viejos verdes y adolescentes. Trato de no leerlas nunca , salvo ciertas excepciones, como , en este caso, que estén muy bien reseñadas (a menos que la mayoría sean reseñas con muchos gifs y fotos de castings sobre los protagonistas, modelos o actores con frases del...
Unteachable is one of those books which falls into the new age category New Adult. The genre can generally be described as YA with sex or contemporary romance with a younger protagonist (high school or college). As with any type of genre/category, there's good and bad. I have books that I like, bu...
Cross-posted on Soapboxing "How old did you think I was?" "I don't know. 25? How old did you think I was?" "About the same." Both of us were lying. I was 19 and he was 31. When I think of my body then, I have this sense of sharpness, like my skin was too tight over my bones, like the me...
