I loved Bully so much but I think I love this version better because now we get Jared’s story and side of things and I can understand why he did what he did better. Plus we get extra scenes. ( )

Still addicted ( )

Nella sostanza un libro, a mio avviso, del tutto inutile, niente altro che la ripetizione del precedente solo narrato dal pov di Jared e che, alla fine, molto poco aggiunge a quanto già letto.
Sono, infatti, convinta che se l’autrice avesse scritto un unico volume comprensivo dei due pov di certo avrebbe confezionato una storia maggormente completa e con quel quid che l’avrebbe resa veramente speciale.
Diluendo il tutto in due volumi ha solo allungato inutilmente il brodo e perso l’occasione di scrivere un libro che avrebbe potuto probabilmente essere anche un indimenticabile. ( )

This is ‘Bully’ from Jared’s POV. I thought I knew the story beforehand. I thought Until You might seem repetitive. I was wrong.

This was so worth reading! ( )

First off I loved Bully (book 1).  I didn't think Until You (book 1.5) could top it.  A lot of times a series starts out strong and only goes down hill.  Also, hardly ever is a book that's over much of the same time period as the previous but in another character's POV a good idea.  So often it's just a repeat and boring.


This book is not one of those statistics!  Until You is even better than Bully.  The story is very different.  Most of the book is totally new scenes.  And you find out so much previously unknown info and background.



Tate and Jared met at 10 and were best friends until 14, until Jared's world fell apart, and he took it out on Tate.














"You were my tempest, my thunder cloud, my tree in the downpour.  I loved all of those things, and I loved you.  But now...you're a fucking drought.













We learned what went on in Tate's life from book one.  In this book we really get inside of Jared, and we also get a lot more info on the other characters which provides a great lead-in for the upcoming books.  A lot of book two is Jared's background, what he did while Tate was out of the country and his interactions with Madoc and Jax.  We get a much better understanding of him.






There's something to be said for acting like a five-year-old and breaking some shit.




She read me like a book.  She was light on the public displays of affection and heavy on the eye fucking.




"Now, I could go on about mommy didn't love me and daddy hit me, but who doesn't have a story right?"




I'm not going to give a long review because this book is a must read, and I don't want to spoil it.  I loved it.  And I must give a very huge shout out to the author for her music choices.  Bully and Until You both contain awesome music, my kind of music, the kind I don't find often in books.
