Taking Chances By Molly McAdams!!

Taking Chances by Molly McAdams

Her first year away is turning out to be nearly perfect, but one weekend of giving in to heated passion will change everything.

Eighteen-year-old Harper has grown up under the thumb of her career marine father. Ready to live life her own way and to experience things she's only ever heard of from the jarheads in her father's unit, she's on her way to college at San Diego State University.

Thanks to her new roommate, Harper is introduced to a world of parties, gorgeous guys, family, and emotions. She finds herself being torn in two as she quickly falls in love with both her new boyfriend, Brandon, and her roommate's brother, Chase. Despite their dangerous looks and histories, both men adore Harper and would do anything for her, including taking a step back if it would mean she'd be happy. 




Review:

I felt like I was dying. Halfway through the book and my heart was ripped to shreds. I had to stop to sleep because every page after that, every moment just tore me apart even more.

I loved the characters from the beginning (some not so much, ya know.) I was team Chase from the start. I was mad through the first part, "Just freaking do what I want you to already!!" but obviously that's not how it works. Which is great because I love when a book puts you on your ass. And this one did. A Lot.

But dammit Molly McAdams, did you have to rip my soul out?!?!?! I know I know. I picked this book because it was on some post saying it'll make you bawl your eyes out. Well it succeeded. Truly.

It tore my heart out and ripped it to shreds then continued to beg for more, but alas I had no more to give.

I still cried through the last half of the book, but it was mostly happy tears. <3

I still highly recommend this book, but I would just add a disclaimer that you need a million boxes of tissues.

I told my husband, "It's not like The Fault In Our Stars where you bawl on the last tiny bit of the story. No. It's right in the middle where you still have so much more to cry through!" But it was amazing. Although I might have to watch an only funny/action movie, so I don't have a chance of crying anymore. I'm all cried out. <3

A standalone romance novel published by Montlake Romance By: New York Times Bestselling Authors Vi Keeland & Penelope Ward Release Date: Tuesday, November 6, 2018 SYNOPSIS: It all started with a mysterious blue note sewn into a wedding dress.  Something blue.  I’d gone to sell my own unworn bridal gown at a vintage clothing store. That’s when I found another bride’s “something old.”  Stitched into the lining of a fabulously feathered design was the loveliest message I’d ever read: Thank you for making all of my dreams come true.  The name embossed on the blue stationery: Reed Eastwood, obviously the most romantic man who ever lived. I also discovered he’s the most gorgeous. If only my true-love fantasies had stopped there. Because I’ve since found out something else about Mr. Starry-Eyed.  He’s arrogant, cynical, and demanding. I should know. Thanks to a twist of fate, he’s my new boss. But that’s not going to stop me from...

"I ate them like salad..." Our love for books, regardless of their content.

Happy Banned Books Week readers! Usually, I don't think too much about banned books.  I have such a deep love for the written word that it never occurs to me that someone, somewhere could possibly take offense to the beautiful words these brilliant minds have shared with us.  The theme of this week however has forced me to stop for a second and think, "Where would I be without my books y'all?!" Emma and some of her favorite banned books :) One of my all time favorite books, FAHRENHEIT 451 by Ray Bradbury is not only a banned book, but it is also an insightful and deep commentary on censorship (how's that for irony eh?).  I was "fortunate" enough to read this book in high school.  I say "fortunate" because I know in my heart how blessed I was to study literature in school, however I struggled with the forced nature of reading created by needing to prove I had learned something from the material.  By the time I got to my Senior year when ...
