Faking It

It took me less than a day to read Losing It, that book was so good! However, I started this one immediately after and it just wasn't the same. The characters, while complex, bored me to tears. Bliss and Garrick were dynamic and hilarious. Max is infuriating because she is unrealistically guarded and Cade is so flat. I just can't get into it like the first book. I won't be wasting my time with the last book.

Unfortunately, I read Faking It directly on the heels of Losing It, and it's impossible not to compare the two. In fact, I loved the first book so much that I was dying for more, so I guess in that sense I went in with really high expectations. But where Garrick and Bliss were both sweet and hilarious, where I spent just as much time laughing at Bliss's antics as I did swooning over Garrick, Faking It, while sweet, lacks a lot of that crazy fun. I imagine if I picked this book up entirely on its own, without having a clue about the story that came before it, I probably would given it a higher rating, but since I picked it up primarily because I wanted more of what book one so perfectly offered, I ended up being a little disappointed. Faking It is a sweet, solid love story, and it's great to see Cade get his well-deserved happily ever after, but I wanted the insanity of the first book, and it didn't really carry over into this one.

I loved it I couldn't put it down. But the end wasn't such a big fan of it, the in between I did like. I loved losing it, it got me out of my reading slump and so did this one .
