Dark Lessons by Julia Sykes

3.0

This cover is just OK. I am not sure ANY cover would be a good representation of this book to be honest. The composition isn't that great either. The text at the top and bottom is stretched too much giving it a skewed look.

The first half of this book was really good. It was well-written. Nicely pace. Was smokin' hot. Had likable characters. Everything was just going so well. It was looking to be a 4-4.5 Star book. Then at 50%, it took the most unbelievably BIZARRE turn that left me going...uh what?!

Next thing I know we have skipped five years in the future, and it turns into an entirely different book. I honestly don't even know what to say. The whole plot of the second half was just...WIERD. It also wasn't very fleshed out. AND there were some plotholes large enough to drive a semi through (IMO.) Unfortunately, the author completely lost me at that point.



That said I am still giving this one 3-Stars because the first half was excellent. This author writes great BDSM scenes and I will most likely continue on and read the next book when it is released.
