Reviews
Funny!
4By NewEarthorBustI loved the humor in this. And, it has a lot of heart.Funny, Romantic & Quirky
5By ZoilaObregonI loved this book because the plot was well written, it’s keeps you engaged with both sides of the perspective of the two main characters. You see how they both develop into the people they are meant to be and how good they are for each other.Snap Judgement
1By YourAverageBookWormThe author completely blamed women for sexual harassment based on how they dress- I couldn’t get passed the first chapter due to the terrible characterization. One of the main characters is supposed to be an educated psychologist and yet she is shown to be someone who clearly believes it’s the victims fault- how could you write a book that gives out this message? I certainly couldn’t read one.With This Ring, I Thee Dread
1By simchaadelWhat a farce! The main characters are 27 and 30, but talk and act like teenagers. I did finish the book in hopes the story would develop. Nope!Great read!
5By SkyGirl02I love this book.Patience......
4By PSemonesI should always read a book again if I didn't like it the first time, because never I leave a good review. I read the entire book again and found the book to be a sweet love story. I read a review that said the book had some immature parts. But, basically it's the way some grown people are. So true to life. The only complaint was the cover is ridiculous, a bride over the groom, I didn't read the book for six months because of the cover and then a negative view when I read it the first time. From from to back is the whole package matters, you can't think of a cover just put flowers and the title. The cover matters.Well Well
5By Bi dinaI must say this was unexpeted one. Beautiful well written story. Impeccable moral teacher. You have done a excellent job on this one.Really hard to finish
1By xoashleykoxI wanted to find out how this book ended, I have 5 pages left and am struggling to finish. The writing is like reading a medical transcript. Stiff, formal, unnatural, and doesn't flow. The way the characters communicate with each other is so awkward. I saw 550 reviews and four star rating and thought it would be a good one. Not so much.Very immature
1By Nage nuhairThis book has a very immature narration and is boringGreat Book
5By Billieh82Hooked until the very endGood
4By horses1998It would have been amazing if they didn't keep bringing up sex.Wasted Story line/Plot
1By Jj1127rossFirst, let me just say the storyline is good. As with many of this Author's books, the story lines all have potential. However, begin reading and you get transported to a horrible misuse of words. I question if any editor even reviewed this, and if they did what they were thinking. The characters are flat and poorly developed. Most of the characters speech is incredibly awkward or stilted. I really did love the idea of this book, but on reading it all I can say is, DON'T!!! Unless you are an English major/creative writing major looking to improve your editing/writing skillsCute
4By MsyBaby28It's a super cute book, romantic without being dirty.Childish
1By Karategirl_96The characters are unrealistic, the model at the party in the beginning was written as if my 6 year old niece wrote this character. The characters are forced into an arranged marriage and a secluded cabin because they don't want to be cut off by mom and dad. Two spoiled brats, I don't really care what happens to them. I quit reading after 50 pages.AWFUL
1By Kaylinb123Worst book I have ever read. Terrible dialogue, it felt so forced. No flow at all, it sounded like the characters were reading the script of a cheesy movie. The plot COULD have been interesting had the execution been better, but as it is I could only get through 30 pages and then just couldn't take it any longer.With This Ring, I Thee Dread
5By Word Nut 2011Funny story line with drama. Good read for older teens (parents need to read first for age appropriateness). The novel story line discusses the impact bullying can have on life decisions. Good read for the adults, too.With this ring I thee dread
