So EVERY review I’ve received, good or bad, matters to me. For one it means someone took the time to read what I wrote, and secondly they took the time to WRITE a review. I wanted to share this particular review by the One Nerdy Girl and Her books blog.
Widower’s Aura by A.J. Renee
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
An Epic Love Story
A couple of things before I start.
The storyline was 10/5. seriously. I loved the way the story progressed – smoothly and enticingly.
Characters were awesome. They grew with the story and developed with each plot twist.
The only thing I had an issue with was all the touchy feely stuff. Like, kissing in public all the time. I dunno, to me that’s a little weird that they did that while out with people. But then again, I’ve never been with someone that I can’t keep my hands off, so I could be bitter!
As for the book itself, and my review, I really enjoyed the book as a whole. The characters interacted well with each other, and I super related to Sofia with her mortification regarding the Lindsey incident. Seriously, that was way on the money. Then, to top it off, Marc gets in on it and is just plain awesome. I think he’s my favourite character, just by the way he teases Sofia and Noah.
The author obviously expressed her own sense of humor when developing the discourse of Marc throughout the book, and has a great grasp of his and Noah’s friendship. I also want to point out that while Noah is a little possessive (just enough to be delicious), the author didn’t take it so far as to make the relationship vaguely abusive. Believe me, that can happen.
You’ll want to read this book because of the storyline (a girl moves to a new town, meets a guy thats still dealing with heartbreak and wants nothing to do with her, but she’s been forced into his life through circumstance), but you’ll keep reading for the characters that will make your heart ache for even a little of what they offer. You’ll keep reading for the humor that the author has interspersed throughout the book, and then, like me, you’ll be heartbroken that the next book isn’t out yet. You’ll cross ever appendage you have, and use all your willpower to not threaten and force the book to come out earlier.
It won’t help, though
