meegzreads 's review for:
Playing with Fire
by L.J. Shen
medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven:
Character
Loveable characters:
Complicated
Flaws of characters a main focus:
Yes
*4 Stars*
An interesting read about peoples pasts and how it shapes them. Both our main characters have trauma in their past and deal with it completely differently. The fact that they end up moving forward together and learning about each other was great. A bit of an angsty read in parts and I was keen to see how things would play out between these two. I found that I liked these characters more than some of the others in LJ Shen books I've read, but there was definitely still the whole bully/asshole thing going on during the story. Not really sure what else to say except that I enjoyed this one and will read more from the author.
