Leanne Crabtree (480 KP) rated Love to Hate You in Books

Sep 6, 2019

3.5 stars.

I'm not normally a fan of romantic comedies as such and this one didn't make me laugh, I thought it was a bit ridiculous in places but putting that aside I did like the romance part. Though admittedly, I didn't quite get that part to start with either.

Ben just seemed really determined for her to fall for him and they'd literally only met that night at the club. I had to keep reading just to find out <i>why</i> Ben had fallen for her so easily. And the reason surprised me a little but why not?

I may read more of Jo Watson's books.

What happened Stephen King?

Contains spoilers, click to show

When you think of Stephen King you think of Horror, Pennywise, Salems Lot, Creepshow etc etc.
Not when you watch this. The plot just seems so out of touch for Stephen King. Not his 'norm' at all. Maybe a good thing?

The plot? ODD.
At first I thought I was watching a young, pregnant couple. No, brother and sister. They seem too "involved" to be anything but romantic partners.
Then theres the strange, out of the blue characters (that do not blend in with the storyline), you meet along the way.
You will scream at the ending, all that for nothing.

It's definitely something new... not like anything else (2 more)

I actually quite enjoy the storyline, even though it is like a dirty version of twilight.

The raunch is quite entertaining 😂

The books are only known for their raunchy side which is a shame. (1 more)

The writing isn't too cracking.

I'm just romantic

Now I know the storyline isn't the best, neither is the writing but I still enjoy these books.
Also, since the books came out, people who are THAT way inclined, don't have to feel it's wrong, unusual or taboo. Between two consenting adults, there isn't anything wrong with it. (Although it is too much for my taste!)
