Forever Too Far by Abbi Glines
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
BLAME THE INTERNET CONNECTION FOR NOT LETTING ME POST THIS RIGHT AWAY!
I know about the back story of Nan's life and where she's coming from in this "HATING BLAIRE" thing or should I say "HATING EVERYTHING THE MOVES AROUND HER" but (ARGHHHHH I'M JUST SO PISSED OFF WITH HER) it's just getting out of hand/control already! It really annoys the hell out of me! Why the need to let Rush pick between her and Blaire? Fudgecakes! Their (Nan and Blaire) relationship towards Rush is on different levels, she's a sister to him and Blaire's the girl he's in love with. Just why? (It only goes to show that Abbi Glines is good in making us or at least me, hate one of her characters LOL) I'm done with that drama. Off to focus on some good stuff now. HAHA
Good thing there were great stuff that happened here in comparison to the first two books. It somewhat compensated with the pain I’ve felt reading those two. For the first time, Blaire and Rush got to have “full-time” happiness. Though, with some “Nan” drama injected in some scenes. At least those were just temporary drama, because what Blaire and Rush have are more on the permanent side. Especially, with them being a married couple and having Nathan Rush Finlay already.
I’m just happy with the “relationship development” that happened in this book. Dean’s relationship towards them, it’s just really cute seeing a rock-star doing stuff for Blaire. Blaire’s father also, at least there was a huge progress on that department. I was totally shocked on this one – Woods being serious with a girl (Rush 2.0 HAHA). But I want to know more if there’ll be a possibility to Grant and Harlow to be together. *Screaming* There moments are just plain cute, Harlow being the shy type of girl and Grant just being Grant. Oh the possibilities.
All in all, it was still a good book for me.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Is fate, destiny or whatever you call that not gonna let them stay happy for uhmmm longer or for forever? It's like just after experiencing a little time of happiness *POOF* it's been taken out of their hands already.
And we have the PLOT TWIST OF ALL PLOT TWISTS for this book and the previous one. I think this is the reason that caused Fallen Too Far to be dragged and have a sequel. (As if I have the power over that decision HAHA)
The lines said by the characters were good (actually, saved some of those HAHA) and can really make you feel the emotions they're having at that specific scene - *coughs* pain *coughs* There are moments that it's really that painful and you just feel that your heart's gonna burst any minute.. Gahhhd this book!
One thing's for sure, I'm still gonna read Forever Too Far ... and I'm going do it now.

Fallen Too Far by Abbi Glines
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
*BLAME THE INTERNET CONNECTION FOR NOT LETTING ME POST THIS RIGHT AWAY!
I actually wrote this post right after I finished reading Fallen Too Far. Dagnabit! I'm such a crybaby when I read stories like this. I did have a few tears in my eyes and my heart's still aching over this one ... and I'm pretty much craving for the next book. So yeah, I'll immediately jump on to reading Never too Far after I'm done with this thing.
The sexual tension between Blaire and Rush - too much! *EXPLOSION*
Disregarding that and if we focus on the story itself, I like the characters and the story. At first, I thought it will just be about a guy and girl liplocking and having sexy time all day long. But as the story progresses, you'll able to get some hints, that the story will turn out to be bigger than that. And I was totally right.
HIGHLIGHT OF THIS BOOK: THE REVELATION PART AND HOW BLAIRE AND RUSH'S RELATIONSHIP TURNED OUT - I CAN'T DEAL WITH THAT. Painful. *wipes tears from my eyes*
I haven't guessed what would be the secret they've been trying to keep from her, so I was really shocked during that moment in the book. That's a crazed-ass situation going on in there.
And my heart goes to Rush, it was just the timing of all the events. Ughhh it really sucks. ('CAUSE IF I WERE YOU RUSH, YOU SHOULD'VE TOLD HER ABOUT IT WHEN SHE WAS ASKING YOU. NOW, THAT HAPPENS! HUHU)
But then again. When he followed Blaire and they got the chance to talk - WHOA RUSH'S REVELATION. Gahhhd! It's like you can also understand where Rush was coming from but then again that act that he did, happened to hurt Blaire. So that totally sucks. His decisions from the past comes to haunt him down and bites his ass. Well, all he's got to do is to deal with the consequences it entails now.
I'm off and going to read the next book. Phew phew. 3
