Reviews with content warning for Alcohol - Hate

Actually so stupidly entertaining... Is it high lit? No. But it's getting 4 stars anyway because I had so much fun.

This book is fueled by delusion and nonsense and what can I say? Watch out wattpad ! A new girl is in town and it's HATE by tate james

I wasn't sure how I was going to feel about this book as I tend to find 'Why Choose?' novels are a bit hit or miss. I really, really enjoyed this story though. It was incredibly well paced, and there wasn't any part where I felt like the story was losing its momentum. I liked the characters well enough, although it took me much longer than I care to admit to distinguish the three guys from one another.

I did feel that this was more like a prequel story, as there are still so many threads that need to be unravelled. I also cannot take the word 'engorged' seriously. It reminds me of that scene in '10 Things I Hate About You' and it really threw me off my game - BUT that's just personal preference.

I think it’s safe to say I’m super late to reading this series. Tate James put something in these pages and I couldn’t get enough! And that cliffhanger ending??

This is one of those books where I feel like you need to go in blind. And, although the character Madison Kate can be a little juvenile at times, there’s just something in the way James writes that kept me hooked and wanting more? This was a page-turner and I need to know what happens next!

Super sexy slow burn dark romance. Less smut than I expected, but the sexual tension and build up was perfection. It wasn’t very dark to me: some gang references, a little violence, and mentions of a murder and stalker. But I can see how things will get both spicier and darker as the story line continues. My biggest issue was the mega cliffhanger and how almost nothing came to a solid conclusion in this book & thus forces the reader to book 2 for any satisfactory ending on current plot threads. I loved the main characters and each dynamic that the 3 main guys bring to the table. MK is sassy and fun - though I suspect she has poor taste in friends lol. A fun indulgent romance! I plan on reading book 2
