I sped through this book, finishing it in just a few hours. I don’t know if it’s because I loved it, because it was a great story, or because I just really wanted to finish it, but I didn’t put it down until it was done, and it was great.

This book was from the point of view of Will and he was telling Layken about his experience meeting her. He was basically explaining his point of view of the events that transpired in Slammed.

It was so nice to hear the other character’s point of view for once. Everyone is always wondering what was going through his mind. I loved getting the chance to see how he reacted and his thoughts.

Also, I loved the format. Hoover started off the book with Layken and Will’s honeymoon and then Will jumped right in to his first anecdote. Then after each story, she would come back in to the honeymoon and show how Layken felt about what Will had said.

There are two sides to every story, and it was great to have the insight to both sides of this one.

I have to say this book wasn’t as funny and emotional as the second one. I already knew all that had happened, so there weren’t any big surprises and plot twists which I usually love. But this book wasn’t that type of book, so I pushed those thoughts out of my mind and let the story sweep me up.

And it did, easily. Four stars.

*Oh, and the slam poetry was great. Again.
