Book Review: Hate Notes by Vi Keeland and Penelope Ward
Review:
This book!
Reed and Charlotte meet under false pretenses and their first meeting was one for the books to say the least! Talk about cringe worthy. Eventually Charlotte ends up working for Reed and he’s not pleased at all. Despite his disdain for Charlotte, he is attracted to her as well. This is where the book was tricky for me because Reed was such a jerk. Like he irritated me to no end with his hot and cold. Rudeness. And whole demonar. As time passes Reed becomes the man I was hoping he would be. He really redeemed himself for me in this book and I loved it!
Charlotte was a spitfire with a heart of gold. Even though life has dealt her a crap hand at times she’s still the “glass is full” kind of girl. Albeit a bit naive at times. Charlotte also did mature in this book and it made me happy. I loved her character so much and wanted nothing but the best for her!
As this story progresses the layers are peeled back, secret revelations are revealed and my jaw was dropping. I had to re read certain parts twice and at one point I dropped my kindle. As a long time reader of these authors, I knew the twist was coming but even I wasn’t ready for this! This book had my emotions all over the place as I read! This book has such an original plot and I loved how it made me think about my own life at times.
Ward and Keeland are my favorite writing duo. Hands down. Their writing was FLAWLESS in this story and everything just flowed. At times I forgot that it’s two people that wrote this book. I’ve read several books by these authors and this has become my top favorite from them. This story took me out of the dreaded book slump that I was facing. Thank you ladies and I can’t wait to see how you ladies out do yourself next!
