Forever, Jack by Natasha Boyd
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Most of the things I enjoyed about the first book were absent in this one.
Keri Ann’s character grew increasingly weak and unsupportive of Jack. She holds things against him that are completely out of his control. Her behavior and fear was outrageously egocentric and not an attractive quality to read about (unless of course she’s being betrayed at the villain instead of someone you wanted to succeed.)
Lastly, I have read a few other people’s reviews on this book and I’m surprised I haven’t seen anyone mention the overly controlling, unhealthy relationship between Keri Ann and her older brother, Joey. He limited and controlled her interactions with boys/men growing to such an extent that at 22 years old she didn’t understand that she was attractive. Doesn’t that seem extreme to you? Goodness! I understand being protective but actually negatively impact the way she perceives herself is a no-no in my book. Joey also makes disrespectful comments to her and unfairly judges situations he doesn’t have any business being involved in. Definitely wish someone would’ve put him in his place instead of giving him his own book.
