2013 BOOK CHALLENGE 13/35: SMART MOUTH

My Lenten sacrifice for this year includes:

• I won't drink Coke 
• I will abstain from eating meat Wednesdays & Fridays
• and no erotica-ish books, too (such as the Rock Chick series)

for 40 days. Just as I broke all of my New Year's resolution even before the first month of 2013 was done, I broke my Lenten sacrifice but I'll say with a much longer holding period. When I chose to read Smart Mouth, I didn't really think the book has lots of sexy time. I mistook it for a girly-girl, full-on chick-lit. Guess I was wrong...

It was okay. Many liked it but I am not one to rate a book based on the frequency of sexy times the characters had ;) I do not get blinded by those. Ha. I still look at the story as a whole and Smart Mouth was a little repetitive and predictable just like that 50 Shades trilogy and the Rock Chick series.

But I liked how it ended. This book really calls for a happy ending. Derek deserved his happy ending, y'all! Actually, good for Derek and Reese.

I forgot to have a theme this month. Initially, I was thinking of books with 'summer' in the title, but I don't think I want to read Jenny Han's Summer series in succession. So I tried the random number generator on the internet and I'll read that book with the assigned number. Saves me time from deciding which title to read. It could get a little overwhelming, y'know. So many books, so little time. Next books are Stargirl (by Jerry Spinelli. This book is way looong overdue) and Chicken Soup for the Soul Celebrates Sisters.
