Download And Enjoy Baby Be Mine Constructed By Paige Toon Produced In Manuscript
story started out excruciatingly slow, We spend quite a few chapters listening to Meg being mopey and telling us about her life with Christian and her son, Nothing really happens until Johnny shows up at Christian's parents' house, I really felt bad for Meg throughout the whole book because her situation just seemed impossible to deal with, I'm not sure how I felt about Johnny through all this, I mean, yeah, there were times when was actually sweet and it was obvious that he cared about Meg and their son, but I found myself really disliking him for the most part.
I'm also not sure how I felt about Christian, I get that he was really upset by the whole thing, but I'm a little disappointed by how he reacted, I don't know. I just thought that maybe he'd be able to forgive Meg and they'd end up together, To be honest, I was kind of hoping that Meg and Christian's reconciliation towards the end would give way my preferred ending, but alas, all hopes were dashed when it was mentioned that Christian was seeing someone new.
Anyway, I'm not too disappointed about it, Despite my apprehension towards Johnny, I still pretty much love how everything turned out in the end, It took forever, but Johnny did eventually get his act together,
I didn't love this book as much as the first one, Like I said, it started of really really slow and I felt like some parts were kind of unnecessary and made the story longer than it needed to be.
It took me a little longer than usual to finish this book because it wasn't nearly as exciting as it's predecessor, While it did have it's fair share of drama, it just doesn't have that "can't stop reading, can't put it down" quality to it, I liked it well enough and I'm glad we finally have our ending, The epilogue does a great job of closing out the whole story, God knows what I would have done if it had ended in another cliffhanger, FIVE Oh Johnny! Stars
I looooooooooove this series, Rockstar Romance at its best!
Ill reread this books till the end of time,
I cant believe more people havent read them, Johnny is soo good, I had no idea that this was a sequel, I think it works well as a standalone novel, The first few chapters felt like a chore as Meg overdoes the guilt and it is hard to feel sorry for her, but when Johnny enters the story and the truth about Barney is discovered the book really gets going, and I liked the relationship between Meg and Johnny.
sitelink blog Once PA to Rock Star Johnny Jefferson, now Meg moved on to live in the South of France with her boyfriend Christian and their son Barney, But shes living a lie that could turn their lives upside down and her conscience wont shut up,
Barney is growing to look more and more like his father and its not Christian but the love of her life, who is still very much into drugs, drinks and women.
Sooner or later shell have to tell the truth,
This book has much more of that fluffy chicklit feel to it than the previous one, Theres still a lot of
angsty, emotional rollercoaster and it had me fuming and ranting but not as much as “Johnny be good”, I style love the writing style and practically absorbed the whole thing in no time,
This is the kind of book where I have to remind myself to let it be a story and not judge everything, every step of the way.
But is this guy oblivious And how could she possibly have thought she could get away with it And how does she keep up with all of this without telling him to get his shit together and stop acting beyond irresponsible
I couldnt not judge Meg but her feeling guilty, the internal struggle, is transported in a way, I also couldnt help feeling sorry for her.
The more she judges herself, the more I felt sorry, Especially with learning that Johnny overdosed once again with his awful girlfriend Dana, who is the perfect person to focus all my hate on, along with sister Susan.
Though, most of this is just toxic, then the end is over the top with all the kitsch, I still kind of enjoyed the whole journey.
.Ohhhh my goodness! Im so happy Ive now read baby be mine which is the sequel to Johnny Be Good I read that back in November last year as part of the paigetoonbuddyread and I wanted to follow the books in the planned order for the buddy read, waiting until this month to read the sequel has been sooo difficult.
Absolutely wonderful book by Paige, I will forever recommend her books, they are stories that just help take you away from general life and you are whisked away to the wonderful locations, The descriptions throughout all of her books Ive read have been brilliant so detailed giving you that exact picture of how everything and everyone is,
I cannot begin to tell you how much I hate and love Johnny, I feel like he has that power over anyone, at times when Im reading I silently curse because Im annoyed at him but then other times I just love him!
I wont say too much as I dont want to give spoilers.
I do think you could potentially read baby be mine as a standalone as you do get a bit of an insight to Johnny and his life, how he met Meg and how Meg met Christian.
. however if you do have the opportunity to read Johnny be Good definitely read it! This is the second episode of this story, I liked it, as much as the first one, The only annoying thing were the constant, overlong repeat summaries of the first book, Especially since Ive read the two books in a row, it irritated me a lot,
On the plus side, there is an ending this time, Happy Ill let you find out for yourself, The book is quick paced and engaging as Johnny be Good, so it wont take you long,
My comments on the story:
, in the beginning you want to shout at the heroine for how dumb she has been
, when I though Johnny had already given his worst the Author finds a couple of creative ways to make him sank to new lows and then rise up again Once more Ill let you find out for yourself.
Klappentext:
Ich habe ein Geheimnis:
Mein Freund ist nicht der Vater meines Sohnes,
Das Kind ist vom berühmtesten Rockstar der Welt,
Nur: Keiner weiß davon,
Aber Meg hat Angst: Wie lange kann sie diese unglaubliche Lüge noch leben und die Wahrheit vor allen verschweigen
Wann wird die ganze Welt herausfinden, dass der Vater ihres Sohnes niemand anderes ist als Johnny Jefferson, der Megastar immer in den Schlagzeilen und immer in Megs Herzen
Kurzbeschreibung:
Meg könnte mit ihrem Freund Christian und ihrem kleinen Sohn Barney, der gerade ein Jahr geworden ist, glücklich und zufrieden in Südfrankreich leben.
Aber Megs Leben ist eine Lüge und ihr Gewissen lässt ihr keine Ruhe, Alle denken, Christian wär Barneys Vater, aber Meg weiß es besser: Johnny Jefferson, der berühmteste Rockstar aller Zeiten, ihr ehemaliger Chef und ihre einstige große Liebe, ist Barneys Vater.
Noch fällt es niemandem auf, dass Barney Johnny von Tag zu Tag mehr ähnelt, doch Meg beobachtet diese Veränderung mit wachsender Angst, Und als sie Johnny nach langer Zeit unerwartet wiedertrifft, wird es noch komplizierter, Denn sie konnte ihn nie wirklich vergessen,
Wie lange wird es jetzt noch dauern, bis jemand die Ähnlichkeit bemerkt und die ganze Wahrheit ans Licht kommt
Meine Meinung:
Ich bin ein absoluter Paige Toon Fan und habe auch dieses Buch von ihr wieder regelrecht verschlungen.
Einmal angefangen kann man es einfach nicht mehr aus der Hand legen und ich musste mich wirklich zwingen es zum schlafen zur Seite zu legen,
Die Story ist wirklich schön und sehr gefühlvoll geschrieben, Es ist die Fortsetzung von "Sei mein Stern" und beginnt fastJahre später, Man findet sich schnell wieder in die Geschichte ein, denn wie könnte man den Rockstar Johnny Jefferson jemals vergessen, Es gibt viele interessante und unvorhergesehene Wendungen, die einem richtig Spaß beim lesen bringen, Ich mag den Verlauf der Story und kann einfach niemals genug von Meg und Johnny bekommen,
Der Schreibstil ist einfach wunderbar und angenehm zu lesen, Paige Toon hat einfach so eine tolle und süchtigmachende Art zu schreiben, sodass man ihr schon nach ein paar Seiten total verfallen ist, Meg erzählt aus der IchPerspektive von den Geschehnissen und so kann man ihren inneren Kampf hautnah miterleben und ihre Reaktionen auf die verschiedenen Situationen sehr gut nachvollziehen.
Die Protagonisten sind alle sehr liebevoll beschrieben und die meisten kennt man schon aus dem ersten Buch und hat sie schon liebgewonnen, Meg ist einfach eine tolle Frau und Mutter und eine sehr sympathische Frau, die man sich gut als Freundin vorstellen kann, Johnny Jefferson ist der Bad Boy unter den Rockaber irgendwie verbirgt sich unter seiner harten Schale auch ein weicher Kern und man muss ihn einfach gern haben.
Es gibt so viele tolle Charaktere und alle sind einzigartig und individuell mit ihren Stärken und Schwächen,
Das Cover ist schön und schlicht gehalten, allerdings finde ich, das es der Story einfach nicht gerecht wird und viel zu unscheinbar wirkt,
Fazit:
Ich liebe die Bücher von Paige Toon und auch dieses hat mich wieder vollkommen überzeugt, Ich liebe ihren Schreibstil, die Story und vor allem die tollen Protagonisten, Man wird einfach süchtig und kann das Buch nicht mehr aus der Hand legen, Absolute Leseempfehlung!
