Unlock The Secrets Of To Be Loved (To Be Human #2) Written And Illustrated By Pearl Love File Format Publication Copy
did not like this one as much as the first one This book was reviewed by Donna for Love Bytes LOVE LOVE LOVED THIS! This was just the perfect follow up to the first book I'm so glad it wasn't too long of a wait and it was just nonstop "I literally can't put my Kindle down and stop reading" from start to finish.
I just loved Tim and David and their relationship in this, from their tentative reconnecting to really true love and the progression for Tim "to be human, " I loved the action, the drama, just everything going on, It's not just a romance, there is so much going on, great world building and characterization, Just perfect! OMFG I can figure out how to say my big problem with the book without using spoilers, . .
Still solid characters, more to love like the first book, but the strange drifting moralities about killing people that went back and forth, OH DEAR GOD JUST SHOOT ALREADY!!!!!! Someone would have shot
that person by book one, I'm not sure why the moral speech kept happening over such a jackass when other people kept killing away or where being killed,
.STARS
If I had to categorize this story I wouldnt call it a romance, even though the underlying theme is love, Much of the book is spent with the main characters on the run and Id probably call it an action story if I had to choose a label.
Theres definitely a lot more violence and death when compared to the first book,
More than that, Tim and David go back to their awkward standoffish behavior and what I imagined would be a heartfelt reunion instead turned out to be a little uncomfortable to watch.
Not that their behavior wasnt justified, Again, this author does an excellent job of knowing her characters and having them behave in ways that make perfect sense, Even if I dont like it, When Tim has the opportunity to kill Woodard and he doesnt do it, I was rolling my eyes and cursing, Because, seriously! Everyone knows that if you have the killer down and wounded you finish the bastard off cause hell come back for you, At first I was annoyed, thinking, what a complete idiot! But no, The most important thing to Tim is proving that hes more than the killer he was bred to be, and the author knew that, And she got it right, The characters were all very true to who they were, right down to Tim starting to make mistakes as he became more “human”,
Having said that though, when David is threatened Tim does not hold back his super soldierness and I actually really loved that part, That violent, bloody showdown at the end, when David finally channeled his inner Steven Seagal and helped his man eliminate the threat to their HappilyEverAfter, Because honestly bad guys, you dont mess with a super soldiers boyfriend and expect that there wont be consequences,
