review 1: SPOILERS AHEAD - READ AT YOUR OWN RISK! Review for both Sweetness and I'm Yours.I thought both books were good stories and I mostly enjoyed reading them. It was a sweet romance that I think fans of YA will enjoy.Some critiques: I did think, and maybe this is because I've never been through it (thank God), that Emily's response to being raped was a bit unbelievable. When she started having sex with Jake, she said once she starts, she can't stop having sex and I got the impression that the rapes and emotional abuse were rather recent. It just doesn't seem like the kind of response a recently raped person would have. The books would have been better with out the rapes in it.Sometimes the conversation felt a little stilted or corny.There were also a few spelling errors.In the ... moreend, I liked it and I am looking forward to reading book #3, Whatever It Takes, soon! It just came out!
review 2: The second installment in the story of Jake and Emily. This book in many ways reminds my of one of my all time favorite lyrics. John Lennon once sang in his amazing song BEAUTIFUL BOY (DARLING BOY), "Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans." Well in this book that hits Jake and Emily right in the face like cream pies from the cosmic stooges. In a book that is often even more emotionally wrenching than in SWEETNESS you come to know the players better, and see them grow in love and in life. Once again I do not want to put any spoilers here so I will suffice it to say that I once again found the people and situations to be realistic and believable. In fact Emily reminds me so strongly of my first love that it almost hurts sometimes to read the books. My biggest critique of this book would be that once again it could use just a touch of polish. Not at all surprising given the youth of the author, and it doesn't detract meaningfully from the strong story-line and even stronger characters. In summation I will say that I will be buying the third installment on June 13, 2012 when it becomes available. I recommend you read this series too if you are at all interested in quality Young Adult fiction. less
