Never Leave Me
by Jody Hedlund
medium-paced
UNPOPULAR OPINION.
BLOG || INSTAGRAM
This did not work for me like the first book did.
Why?
I felt it was too repetitive to the first story. Same bad guy doing the exact same thing. Same reason for going to the past. Same things happening in the past. I don’t know, just a bit too many similarities for this not to drag.
The romance between Ellen and Harrison was really sweet. I did love the first quarter and last where they got a lot more page time together. There were some seriously swoony and charged moments between the two and who am I kidding, that’s ALL I WANT.
I mostly sped read through the later half of this hoping to get back to the main characters actually sharing the page. I wanted a lot more from the surrounding plot and it even took until 30% in to actually know what the whole story would entail. I don’t know, just wasn’t as captivated by this one y’all.
Overall audience notes:
- Contemporary/Magical Realism Romance
- Language: very little
- Romance: make-outs
- Violence: mild
- Trigger/Content Warnings: physical altercations, kidnapping, loss of loved ones, full detail childbirth scene
