Forgetting August by J.L. Berg
3.0
01.04.16: ★★★✩ 3.5 stars
2nd time is a charm, no longer a DNF for me. :)
When I first started reading this series I did not easily fall for August Kincaid and Everly Adams's story line. It may have been at that time I was just in a book funk and nothing was grabbing my attention with this being in the mix. Hence the time frame it took me to complete this book in full was almost a month :/ where it usually takes me a matter of days.
Anyhow, I am so glad that I re-visited this book again because although I was not feeling the story in the beginning; I did pushed on again where things eventually started to pick up. I could not help feel the turmoil that the characters are facing. To start a life again that August has no idea where he had left off and Everly debating whether to be there for her ex-fiancé after what he put her through. The connection between the characters was present but it showed more has the story progressed.
As more of August memories are revealed we are seeing a side of him that reader cannot help but start falling for him, the side that Everly fell in love with. But of course nothing comes easy and we were left with a cliffhanger that had me itching to know what happens next.
Originally my 1st Impression:
12.09.15: Unfortunately, I was not feeling this story. I had a hard time connecting with the characters and the story for me was not grabbing my attention as I had hoped. :/ Although the read started quickly I felt it dragged at the same time causing me to just to push through the pages and ended up DNF. :(
