Things I Wanted to Say, But Never Did by Monica Murphy

Go to review page

guys... i don't think i can even rate this book.

IT WAS INFURIATING

I loved the way Monica Murphy writes... and that's about it. 
First, i don't think bully romances are for me. you're telling me that someone can call you all those insulting names and be so absolutely disgusting towards you and you can STILL fall for him?!?? like no. absolutely not. 

AND THEN THE SMUT. they couldn't even have a civilized conversation without having sex!!!! like idk maybe talk?!?! it made me so mad. like i'm telling yall at least 80% of this book was SEX!!!

i thought this was... cute... i enjoyed the plot and the characters but i literally had to close the book sometimes bc of how much i cringed. Also i absolutely HATED how she would say "god bless america" and "fudge" instead of cussing.

This was so adorable. I'm trying to get into fantasy more and this was the first series everyone recommended to start with (already read ACOTAR). I already had the first book so i was like why not? it did not disappoint. this first book is definitely a lot of world building which is why it didn't get a 4 stars but i really enjoyed it. On my way as I type this to get the next book.

i'm honestly really disappointed. i'm giving this book 3 stars because no matter what i will always love frieda's writing. but this book was not nearly as good as the first two. just felt like the first 60% of the book was boring, no plot.

this was really cute. a fun, fast read.

Olive, The Bride Ami's twin sister, and Ethan, the grooms brother are the only two people at the wedding who didn't get food poisoning. So, they are the only people who can go on Ami's honeymoon. While they're there they bump into Olive's new boss and Ethan's ex girlfriend and have to pretend like they just got married. The only thing is they hate each other.

I absolutely loved this book. it has taken me so long to read this book because of how hyped up it is but it did not disappoint.

“I think it would have been delusional for me to think I could ever get this lucky.” EXCUSE MEEEE?!??🥺🥺
