So lala.
War ganz nett, liest sich locker leicht und kann man nur dezent als "Inspired by Jane Austen" sehen. Die Protagonistin fand ich unheimlich anstrengend. Jeder um sie herum wird mit einander verkuppelt, ob die Personen das wollen oder nicht und wenn es jemand wagt, ihre Partnerwahl in Frage zu stellen, tickt sie aus. Komplett. Es war anstrengend. Zeitgleich ist sie absolut nicht in der Lage zu kommunizieren. Tatsächlich sind weder sie noch ihr love interest in der Lage zu kommunizieren. Das große "Drama" (es war lächerlich klein) hätte mit einem 2 Minuten Telefonat geklärt werden können ... Stattdessen wird tagelang im Bett geheult. Fand die Story und Charaktere so blass und nichtssagend, hätte das Buch rückwirkend betrachtet tatsächlich lieber abgebrochen.
I came across this one on Amazon and fell in love with the series. I've only read very few Jane Austen books, Emma being among them. Wasted Words is a perfectly put together and modern-day version of said book. From page one, I sympathised with the characters - from Cam as the perfect heroine to Bayleigh as one of the loveable minor characters. What is this book about? Cam Emerson and her roommate couldn't be more different: she's a bookish nerd and Tyler Knight the handsome, ex-football player. More surprisingly, they built a friendship, but it is clear that they stay away from any romantic feelings. But what happens when things take a different turn and both want more from this? I hardly ever fall in love with a book after reading only a few pages. Almost instantly I felt right at home, hooked by the characters and the writing style. From the beginning, I enjoyed getting to know the protagonists. Cam and Tyler are interesting characters, and their flaws only make them seem more human and adorable. There wasn't a point throughout the book where I could have lost this feeling of genuity. I loved the setting of the story, and I wish Wasted Words and those single nights were real. As a new fan of Staci Hart, I'm sure it will appeal to other new readers of this author. This book was definitely what I needed and I can't wait to read the follow-ups.
