This was OK. I don't think it was the best romance I have read and I'm not too sure this should be tagged erotica, I don't feel its very erotic...

I like him. I think despite his weirdness and commitment problems I like Jonas. He falls so fast for her and she for him. They fall in love via email without him knowing what she looks like and her being enthralled by him just from his application before she saw a picture.

I also like her, shes vulnerable with low self esteem. I like how she goes for what she wants but shes so worried about him not living to her expectations she stops.

Loved it!

Obsession starts out as just that for two people who yearn for something more and realize they just may get what they’re searching for! Can wait to start next part!

 I did not expect the journey to orgasm takes 11 hours long, plus with a trip to the jungle. Anyway, I am surprise to like The Club:Obsession. The hide and seek in the beginning really got my attention. Especially Jonah. He is a MAN!

I also like Sarah. She is smart and sassy. Both Jonah and Sarah have family issue growing up. Sarah is skeptic that someone like Jonah can really be intersted in her. It will be interesting to see how their story continues in the next book.

i read this series before booktok was born and even before i knew what the term „smut books“ meant.

i quickly became obsessed. the sexual tension in this book is simply out of this world. i also love that jonas is into philosophy and uses phrases to explain his feelings.

just read this book its not going to disappoint.

WOW, so this book was so unexpected. I really thought it was going to be. I love Jonas and Sarah's dynamic and Jonas' love of Plato and Aristotle make for sine great conversations within the story. 
What a cliffhanger. I can't wait to sink my teeth into the next book.

the beginning was very slow and I had a hard time getting into the story but about half way through it picked up

*sospira*
le mie debolezze sono poche, ma tra queste ci sono un uomo che cita il mio amato Plato, anche se nel panorama filosofico con esistono solo Plato, Aristotele e Socrate, ma ognuno ha le sue fisse.
Nessuno ha mai raccontato il mito della caverna come ha fatto Jonas *sospira*
Quel presuntuoso bastardo stronzo figlio di puttana è così adorabile e tenero!
Tutte e dico tutte alla fine vi innamorerete di lui, quindi dovete leggerlo assolutamente!
Il libro è scritto veramente bene, la trama insolita e piena di sorprese.



Update 17/03/2020 (sì, durante la quarantena)

L’ho riletto perché me lo sono ritrovata su kobo, l’ho guardato perplessa dato che non mi ricordavo di cosa parlava e mi sono detta “perché no?”.
Non lo so cosa pensassi nel lontano 2015, ma come mi hanno usato il povero Platone, che si sta rigirando nella sua tomba, è cringisssimooo. È stato veramente imbarazzante. La trama è molto scontata, speravo che almeno fosse coinvolgente o divertente, ma nulla, non posso dirmi delusa perché me lo aspettavo assolutamente.
