Book Rating

I adored how cute this book was. The progression of Dimple and Rishi’s relationship as the got to know each other was wonderful. I especially liked how we got to see it from both points of view. This book made me giggle with glee, go all mushy at the cuteness and ultimately really root for the main characters. It’s been a while since a book had me this invested in a romance, especially a stand alone novel. As well as cute, this book was also funny. The humour was strong throughout, which really added to my overall enjoyment.

I couldn't put this book down.

I wish this book had been around 10 years ago. It is so rare to find a book with such a strong teen female lead that doesn't end up completely centred around teen love/lust. I loved Briar rabbit and the writing was compelling enough to bring me to tears at the more intense parts of the story. It's a great read that I couldn't put down.

fantastic read

This is the second book this series by this author. You definitely need to read these books in order. This is a second chance romance read from this author. Amazing, lovable characters, you just root for all the way through the book. These characters have such intense chemistry between them. This story just pulls you in right from the start and keeps you reading until the very end. I can't wait to read more in this series and by this author in the future.

Highly recommended read

Movie Rating Watch

Yes it's showing it's age but this is still up there with Die Hard as one of the best action movies of the 80's. The original is the best in the series, darker and more violent than the (weaker but still fun) more comedic sequels. The plot is actually a little on the thin side with a fairly forgettable bad guy but what makes the film is of course Gibson & Glover as Riggs & Murtagh one of the greatest big screen duos. The banter ,warmth and respect between the two characters is tremendously entertaining and you just can't help but root for them.
