The title is right though, the book is very different and that can take a little getting used to.

I usually can't deal with a lot of fluff, but there are occasional times when I crave it. I'm sorry you didn't like this as much as you were expecting too, but I' glad you enjoyed it overall. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2583004298603696672.post-20282676481652879652014-10-11T20:29:07.322+01:002014-10-11T20:29:07.322+01:00It's definitely a cute read, but I am not one ...It's definitely a cute read, but I am not one for fluffy romances so that's probably why it didn't work for me.Charnell @ Reviews from a Bookwormhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12694156080937232949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2583004298603696672.post-31341731719141942732014-10-11T20:26:57.949+01:002014-10-11T20:26:57.949+01:00I just struggled dealing with everyone else's ...I just struggled dealing with everyone else's side of things except for theirs.

The more I think about the book, the less I like it. I think I was pretty generous with the 3 stars I gave it to be honest.

I just never got to feel like I truly came to know them, and when I didn't know them fully I couldn't love them or root for them fully.

And I thought I wouldn't connect with the MCs because we never get their POVs but that didn't happen to me. When I read Let's Get Lost I didn't connect with the MC because of it (although we get her POV in the last chapter). But for some reason, this one just clicked with me. But I do agree with you that it was frustrating that they took SO LONG to get together. ~Pamyaescapefromrealityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08200254719073248981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2583004298603696672.post-12764436772538279912014-10-08T23:45:47.945+01:002014-10-08T23:45:47.945+01:00*wails* It just ate my comment.

I'm flexible.)<br /><br />This does sound really cute and fluffy, buuuut, I have to admit I'm not the world's biggest fluffy-romance-fan. And I think I'd be quite frustrated by never being in the main character's heads. 14 POVs?!! Woah! But the cover is super cute.

You made some points that sounded like exactly what I'd say for similar types of books.<br /><br />"I think that Lea and Gabe were actually my biggest problems with this book. Not being able to get inside their heads made me feel like I never really got to know them."<br />OH MY GOOOSHHHHHHHHHHHH<br />It's so interesting you should say this. Last year this idea... (well long story short it was told by everybody other than who the story was actually about.) But I never considered how I would write it to prevent the reader feeling detached from the focus of the story. Hmm this is a good point!!! Anyway I'm glad you brought that up.

And I would have to just lock them in a room together and make them talk I think. lolAnna (herding cats-burning soup)https://www.blogger.com/profile/17422129120413380189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2583004298603696672.post-16421426378422164192014-10-08T14:56:07.499+01:002014-10-08T14:56:07.499+01:00Hmmm, fourteen POVs is a LOT to deal with, especia...Hmmm, fourteen POVs is a LOT to deal with, especially not getting the two you want most.

Although, I do admit, the squirrel was damn adorable, I could have read about him all day long!Amanda Grayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04357839391966441808noreply@blogger.com
