Book Review: Dante's Girl

2/5

So glad I only paid .99 cents for this book. It had great reviews, it sounded good, and I wanted to like it. I really, really, wanted to like it. But gah, no I did not.

descriptionIt wasn’t that funny, to me atleast. I only had a few good laughs from this book. The romance was kinda boring and uninteresting. I just didn’t connect with this story on any level.

It starts of with the MC, Reece, at an airport going to London to spend the summer with her father. Reece has a huge name complex. Thinking it’s a very ‘male’ name. Umm, no Reece is kinda an unisex name like Taylor, Devon and Jordan.

She runs in to the living breathing Adonis. They hit it off and get on the plane together then this whole accident happens. Fast-forward a bit and she goes with him because the airports are being shut down for protection. Our MC finds out Adonis is actually the prime ministers son and a very rich man from this Mediterranean island.

For awhile there she was all hesitant to go with him. But then she found out he’s a prime ministers son and went with him without a second thought. Maybe I’ve read/watched to many mysteries or movies with dirty ‘up standing people’ but I’d still bit weary. He could’ve still been some lunatic, hidden deep down.


Anyways the story does sound interesting but its not.

The MC is so self-depreciating and repetitive and I thought melodramatic in a few cases.

Adonis is pretty much a golden boy: handsome, smart, kind, rich, and really good at taking orders. Just reminded me way to much of my cousin. I didn’t even find him that funny. He wasn’t very believable, I’m like where the hell is this guys flaws? Reece states her’s within the first few pages.

As it comes down to it, I wanted a fluff, got fluff, just not the good fluff.

Oh, and there were a lot of sentences/thoughts ThatWentLikeThis like OhMyGod what the hell?
