Review: Control by Charlotte Stein

 Kumiko Lei     3 Stars, Charlotte Stein, Control, NetGalley, Review     No comments   



Out of 240 pages, I'm estimating that 235 of them were full of kink and sex.  Depending on what you're looking for this could be good or bad.

For myself, with a book that is 240 pages long, there should be some type of story, plot, and character development.  Based on that, I would give this 2 stars.

That being said, if I was just wanting to read some great book porn (which I do like to do), I would give this 5 stars.

I can see Madison's predicament with Andy and Gabriel, she's caught in between, not knowing whether she wants to be in control or the one being controlled.  I get it.   What I didn't get was that she claimed at one point to have been in a very long dry spell, but with the way these three are going at it, I get the impression that she is a nymphomaniac and I'm unclear as to what her definition of a dry spell is.

Andy and Gabriel... What can I say?  Opposites attract.  I dunno, one is overbearing, the other is a pushover.  That's really all I have on these two.

Somehow, in these 240 pages, there is a love match.  When this happened, I'm not sure.  All I know is that in the last few pages I love you's are exchanged and plans are made for the future.

I almost think I would have liked it better if all 3 of them had decided to stay together as a threesome.  You know, where they all love each other and there is some man on man action mixed in.  Don't get me wrong, the kinky sex factor is already high on this one, but don't they all deserve a happy ever after?  Why should one be left out.  It could have really blown my mind if Andy and Gabriel had fallen in love and Madison was left out in the cold.

I'll just say this again.  If you want a story with your kink, this is probably not gonna do it for you.  If you're in the mood for ginormous amounts of kink and sex, this is it.

Review: Sempre by J.M. Darhower

 Kumiko Lei     4 Stars, J.M. Darhower, NetGalley, Review, Sempre     No comments   



For me this was an exceptional book. I had a couple of issues, nothing major.

My emotions ran the gamut.  I was confused, pissed, elated, devastated and probably anything else you can think of.

I don't know how true to life this world is that they are living in, but while I was reading this I was in it and it was crazy.

Carmine and Haven had my heart from the beginning and despite the synopsis calling it a "sexy novel about two seventeen year olds" it didn't come off that way, thankfully.  It was a great love story and a painful one.

Carmine has had everything and Haven has had nothing, but they are both just as lost as the other.  Watching them find themselves and helping each other to do it was amazing.

The losses they suffer, the realizations they come to and the decisions they have to make are insane and heartbreaking.

Watching Carmine's father was confusing.  I didn't know what to think of him, still don't really.  But, I will say everyone in this book does whatever it is they do with a purpose, whether right or wrong, there is a purpose and in their mind it is a worthwhile one and what they do must be done.

I honestly can't wait to read the next one in this series.  I can only hope that my heart and mind can handle whatever is thrown at me.
