And a glimmer of something else too, something sharp and treacherous beneath the smooth surface: shards from a mirror that tipped off a shelf and shattered and rivulets of molten blood and faint scratches from a single nail painted slick black. Still today, when I think back on the experience of reading it, I see freshly pressed silk slipping over skin and fingers sliding through hair and delicate cords of bright pearls shimmering on bare throats like sunrise on water.

Needless to say, my thinking has changed significantly in the past twenty years. It was drawn out because I did not want to be superficial in my response, and I made it public because I think my reevaluation needed to be commensurate to the public reach of my book. This included inviting people to share their stories with me on my website, personal phone calls with readers, an in-depth study of issues surrounding my book overseen by one of my graduate school professors, and finally, creating a documentary film called I Survived I Kissed Dating Goodbye that captured the conversations with people who were reshaping my thinking.įor me, it was important for this process of reevaluation to engage other people and other voices. While attending grad school (between 2015-2018) I began a process of re-evaluating the book. ![]() ![]() In addition to this question, some readers have told me the book harmed them. For many years people have asked whether I still agree with my book I Kissed Dating Goodbye. ![]() ![]() But to be 100% honest Sawyer Bennett is so talented that I quickly forgot that it was in first person and actually began to love that it was written that way. Because I am a Nurse I normally stay away from books like these because I spend more time picking it apart then enjoying it. more to read it and two things hit me at the same time. This book was super sexy, funny, romantic and sad all at the same time. Now that I have gotten that out of the way. I will say that if you want to read a book where you can really connect with the characters and feel their joy, their love, the hot sexual passion, and the depth of their sadness then this is the book for you. It is about serious situations but at the same time it does not get dark or heavy. In this review I will not give any spoilers but I will say that the book is worth your money. Now I have to start off saying that I received this book as an ARC from Netgalley for my honest review, this is also my first book I have read not only by this Author but in this series. Review 1: This book was great! Sawyer Bennett worked magic in this book. ![]() |
