![]() ![]() I finished the book last night and haven’t been able to get the characters out of my head. ![]() If these things weren’t an issue, Haley Cass would move right up to one of my favorite authors. I switched to the ebook and it was a better experience because I could see the punctuation and figure it out. I started out with the audio book but I couldn’t figure out what was going on in too many places because the narrator (who did a fine job) had to deal with all the commas and dashes that many passages ended up word salad. I don’t know what was involved but this could have easily been a five star book – and an automatic entry on my “funk reading list” – if it hadn’t been for the insanity that was randomly placed commas, possessives where plurals were intended, and paragraphs so muddled with pronouns that I literally had no idea who was doing what after several rereads. And if a good editor and/or proofreader was used, the author may not have taken the advice offered. Even a good proofreader would have been helpful. I didn’t look to see if there was an editor mentioned but I’d be surprised if one was used. My biggest pet peeves all over the pages. So what was my problem? Grammar, writing style, and misused and overused words. The sexual tension was off the charts and I wanted these two women to have the best HEA ever. I fell in love with Hannah and Abbie and felt for Caroline. The storytelling and chemistry was so damn good. ![]() This was an up and down reading experience for me. ![]()
