I couldn’t do it anymore. It’s not like I was expecting some masterpiece but like the continuous references to her virginity and the way that she just seemed dumbfounded by like all displays of wealth, I could not do it. Like why ru shocked that at a nice store the things are expensive ...more
Hmm idk how to feel about this one cuz like on the one hand I love a good rh, but I found the plot of this one to just be so meh. Like it was so builtHmm idk how to feel about this one cuz like on the one hand I love a good rh, but I found the plot of this one to just be so meh. Like it was so built up and then the resolution fell rlly flat to me like damn. I also think we needed better world building like ok the underworld exists and there are fallen angels, is there a god? Like what’s the magic systems that exist. They mention the underworld exists outside of like religious ideas but bro huh? Idk it just left me a little confused. I also wish there were more smut scenes I’m sorry maybe just needed a longer book like everything in that book happened in the span of like a weak and I wish it stretched out longer. I liked Lourdes and like her struggles internally like that was a nice touch and her men were fine but outside of Kane were just not given as much of a character arc as her. Idk I just wanted more from this cuz I love rh with black woman and like poc men ...more

He calls her Dewdrop (bc she likes Mountain Dew) constantly including while they fuck.
Also her tits or breasts might as well be a main character in the story bc we hear abt them way too much. They’re big we get it but every single character at some pt mentions her boobs it’s odd.
Lastly both of them act to stupid and not like real people for me I’m sorry. Like ok u quit ur job and the person u recommended said they’re housesitting (which y do u have house sit like ever these days) some rich guys appt and u just were like sure let’s switch. Then said rich man comes home and ur like not scared when he and other random men just come in and out of the house like huh. And then for him he just immediately lets this girl stay here where like she could’ve snooped and he’s a big bad fixer how did he not know that someone else had been living in his place like idk. Also their relationship goes way too fast escpacially on his end where he’s like oh yo we’re together now at like page 60 with no build up. Like what if she’s a spy idk. Not for me ...more

BLACK HOUSE WIFE. Hmm okay so I liked this because ofc I love seeing black women happy and spoiled. I enjoyed a housewife being something that a womanBLACK HOUSE WIFE. Hmm okay so I liked this because ofc I love seeing black women happy and spoiled. I enjoyed a housewife being something that a woman wants to do and it was different to read. I think my issues were 1, I wish he had more money idk it was hard to enjoy him spoiling her when in the back of my head he’s not even a millionaire and is like trying to get there by 30. Also the dude was such an asshole to her like omg he was rude asf to her for what like it was literally “he’s being mean to you because he likes you”…you are almost 40 years old gn. 3, there was a few quotes about like the house wife life where I was kinda like ???
“I always saw myself being a stay-at-home mom," I said. "Breastfeeding, baby-wearing, baby food making, homeschooling, all that crunchy stuff.”He laughed. “I bet you’d be good at it.”“I think so, too. More of us need to do that. Need to be able to do that.”“Us, meaning…?”“Black women”
Like idk why do more of us have to do that, very patriarchal I’m sorry....more
So I was expecting hot and sexy girl meets mafia man and I got that….sorta. The beginning of this was so bad and then it was like someone else startedSo I was expecting hot and sexy girl meets mafia man and I got that….sorta. The beginning of this was so bad and then it was like someone else started writing the book. It was very insta-love but in a way where I was not enjoying it. Their problems were really mundane and hinged in miscommunication which I hate. Then fun stuff actually happens with like actual mafia shit but even then it was so tame and boring and like the ‘worst scene’ was lackluster to me. Idk I was just hopping for more. I did like the heroine being the one who was like I only do one-night stands and that she was bi. I also enjoyed the fact that he was a good cook and she was a burlesque dancer. However there were too many characters to the point she was like “going out to lunch with the girls” and I was reading it like okay but who is that. Like idk but it was too many names that were mentioned like one time...more
U can’t write a borderline mate romance but then make it not supernatural. Like Penn literally felt like a stalker and weirdo and not in a good way. LU can’t write a borderline mate romance but then make it not supernatural. Like Penn literally felt like a stalker and weirdo and not in a good way. Like okay so ur families r weirdos, like if I was lulu I would run. I was rooting for her to leave him the whole time and like even at the end. Also the sex scenes were so odd bc half of them were “punishing” for her being like yo I’ve known u for 2 days I’m not moving in sith u. Like it was so odd I did not like it....more

This was soooooo good like so goddamn good bruh oml. So it was blackity blackity black like I loved it. I will say that I disagreed with some of the kinda hotep and 'woke' shit that was said but it was also really cool to see a romance book incorporate so much blackness and just so much black joy. Above all I just love seeing black woman happy and spoiled and that was this book 100 percent I did read this without reading any of the previous books and was able to read it pretty well like I wasn't really confused or anything while reading...more

Really a nice read however I will say it is long like a good almost 700 pages but like as I was reading it felt like a quick read like yeah. Lennon is the loml like I love her and that’s it. This book also managed to have like a valid reason for like the girl to hate the dude but not so bad that I’m rooting for them to never get back together. Also like Lennon largely is not a doormat and I love it....more

Okay so it’s my own fault that I read this knowing it has a daddy kink and then getting annoyed at said daddy kink but in my defense! it said light daddy kink but girl was calling him daddy 5 times per page. This was a complete smut book. I will be reading book 2 bc I have nothing else to read and I like being a hater...more
3.5 So this was like a fat girl romance sorta cuz it seemed like she just had like a bbl body with like one roll of fat like it said she was 170 and im3.5 So this was like a fat girl romance sorta cuz it seemed like she just had like a bbl body with like one roll of fat like it said she was 170 and im like all this for 170. Before y'all come at me and say the everyone has insecurities, shut up idc. It also was very much like she thinks she's ugly asf and like only starts believing she's hot because he says so. I hate that trope bruh like omg. Anyways this was a cute very insta love book. I liked Atlas, I thought he was hot and that him and Darcy were cute together. The reason why this didn't get the four stars for me was the beginning and like the last 20 percent. The beginning was so much telling omg. Hi im Darcy and this is my best friend and this is what I do for work and im insecure btw oh and blah. Oh ok hi im atlas and I am tattoo artist and im not close with my parents bc they kinda neglected me so I have a new family here at this tattoo shop. Like mf literally says that pretty much verbatim and it really felt like so there was no way you could've incorporated this into a conversation. So yeah it gave the book kinda a bad start but it picked up until we got to the last 20 ish percent. (view spoiler)[Spoilers from here on. So this book has a very fucking dumb breakup, like it was so...like book couldve been done without it and it made me annoyed. Couldn't really enjoy the end of the book because I was fucking annoyed at the dumb ass break up. (hide spoiler)] Writing this review is making me want to lower the stars but I guess I'll stick with my original thinking....more
3.5 This was not a bad book. Like I enjoyed the characters Eros and Psyche were both hot as fuck together and in general hot asf, but Katee Robert has 3.5 This was not a bad book. Like I enjoyed the characters Eros and Psyche were both hot as fuck together and in general hot asf, but Katee Robert has this unique way of making me hate a plot or setting of book. Like I cannot stand Olympus as a setting, everything about it annoys me. The whole like trust no one thing is annoying. I dislike how whenever one of the sisters gets in a relationship suddenly they start hiding everything and the explanation for that is always like "this needs to be kept secret" like okay....Katee Robert just has something in her writing that irks me and I couldn't tell you what it is but its always there lurking every time I read one of her books. Unrelated but both eros and psyche r like queer and I love that. ...more
