by Jasinda Wilder
Book: Falling Into You
Genre: New Adult
Type: Audiobook.
Book rating: ☆☆•5
Narration rating: ☆☆☆
Review
Actual rating 2•5☆
Did I read the wrong book??? 5☆ ratings from almost everyone that read it!!!!
I don't get it....
Where shall I begin with this book.......?
This may be a long one so I suggest you get a cup of tea before you start!
If ever there was a candidate for The Jeremy Kyle show THIS BOOK is it!!
I have eye strain from rolling my eyes every 5 minutes listening to this bag of crap!
I may shout and use naughty words once or twice in this review, if this offends you then I apologise and advise you not to read any further, you have been warned.
I liked the beginning of the book, Nell and Kyle being best friends and then boyfriend and girlfriend..... BUT he dies......We all know it's gonna happen......It tells you in the book blurb before you even start reading it, so I can't see the point of even meeting him, really nice as he is!
After that the shit hits the fan!
At the funeral of her boyfriend/nearly fiance she is a walking zombie, no feelings no grieving. .....then she spots Colton, Kyles older brother.
Now this is where the plot sort of goes wrong for me, Nell and Kyle grew up together but she has never met him once.......REALLY???
ok so I'll let that one go...
The 2nd day after her boyfriends death( remember the no feelings bit?) Colton brushes her skin.......and she feels electricity. ....again, REALLY??? 2 days after???. (eye roll 1)
Anyway let's move on............2 years later ....Yawn
Nell has moved to New York ...(no reason why, you know just for shits and giggles) and is now a guitar playing drunken cutter, who happens to sit next to ......yep you guessed it Colton, in a park....who happens to also be playing the guitar. .....WHAT ARE THE CHANCES? ???? (eye roll 2)
She sings a song, and obviously doesn't sound anything like a drowning cat, no she has the sound of an angel, bleeuurrgh, and he sounds like .....god I don't know a male equivalent of Eva Cassidy or something, anyway they sound perfect together (eye roll 3) so she does the obvious thing and runs away!!
Now because she looks like a fucking supermodel and has the voice of an angel Colton has been pining after her for 2 years...... (remember the electricity from before?)
He runs after her, goes into her apartment without being asked and perves on her getting changed, ewww. Anyway he's got rippling muscles and perfect YA book hair and eyes so it's all ok reader don't panic!
Later on ... (and we don't know how later on as time is not an important thing in this book) they meet again in a bar, however he is singing on stage (eye roll 4) and she is with another man.
He is pissed off with the "ogre" laying his hands on her, goes out for a little stroll (at 3 o'clock in the morning) and just happens to end up at her apartment. (god my eyes are starting to cross with all of the rolling).
Previously mentioned Ogre is propositioning Nell and she is saying NO ........queue attempted rape, Super Colton to the rescue, fighting, blood and a near dead body, but all is ok, as Colton calls up one of his "Homeboys" to sort out the situation.
After the near rape she goes back to Coltons house and falls asleep, there he undresses her, while she is asleep, and can't help himself and touches her lovely thighs?? REALLY?? AFTER SHE WAS NEARLY RAPED?????
But it doesn't matter dear reader as she gets her own back by giving him a handjob while he is sleeping!!!! Yep you read that right, she hand rapes him while he is sleeping, nice!
Anyway after that she cries, he deflowers her bum and he's good at oral so alls good!
But it's not.....GOD THIS BOOK!!
It's like the author sat and wrote a list of all the shitty things that could ever happen to someone, tried to put a couple in somewhere in the story, and then just thought Fuck It I'm going to put them all in !
No wonder Nell cut herself, I mean really??
Colton went from being a quite nicely articulated boy, to a badass beat-the-shit-out-of-you Home Boy with "connections" to gangs, with a little BDSM expertise thrown in!
Angst angst angst, sex sex sex, boohoo boohoo, I'm no good, I'm an asshole, I can't grieve yarghhhhh! !!
And then when you think that it is going to be a HEA she socks it to you again ..... not good Jasinda, not good at all..........See me after class.
