A review by heyelise
With My Body by Nikki Gemmell
1.0
Plot: A middle aged woman unhappy in her marriage reminisces the sexual relationship she had with an older man the summer she turned 16.
I find this book really hard to rate/review...because I enjoyed it at first, but once I found out how sad, lonely, and desperate for her fathers love this character was as a child, I was disgusted by the relationship she cherishes so much. In fact, as she recalls her life, you see how messed up she is because of it. Sooo, NOT sexy. NOT hot. NOT erotic. Gross and weird.
Also, the whole book was written in second person and there were lessons at the beginning of each chapter that didn't make sense.
1.5 stars BECAUSE: I didn't stop reading and there was a twist that I enjoyed, even though I shouldn't have.mwahaha.
WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS.

Spoiler
When the relationship ends, the woman thinks the man left her, but it's because her dad beat the crap out of him and made him.WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS.
