'The next Sophie Kinsella' BUSTLE

'A brilliant, biting, hilarious new voice' KRISTAN HIGGINS

'I would read Sally Thorne's grocery list. She is THAT good' GOODREADS
__________________

Crush (n.): a strong and often short-lived infatuation, particularly for someone beyond your reach . . .

Darcy Barrett found her dream man at age eight - ever since, she's had to settle for good enough. Having conducted a global survey of men, she can categorically say that no one measures up to Tom Valeska, whose only flaw is that he's her twin brother Jamie's best friend - oh, and that ninety-nine of the time, he hasn't seemed interested in her.

When the twins inherit their grandmother's tumble-down cottage, they're left with strict instructions to bring it back to its former glory. Darcy plans to leave as soon as the renovations start, but before she can cut and run - her usual MO - she finds a familiar face on her porch: Tom's arrived bearing power tools, and he's single for the first time in almost a decade.

Suddenly Darcy's sticking around. Sparks start to fly - and not just because of the faulty wiring. But a one percent chance with Tom is no longer enough. This time around, Darcy's switching things up. She's going to make Tom Valeska ninety-nine percent hers.

I really wanted to enjoy this book because I enjoyed The Hating Game by this author, and I wanted to ignore the early negative reviews for this book. However, this just missed the mark for me. There were too many negative dynamics between characters and it left a negative feeling in me because of it. There was a lot of promise, and it was well written, but it was the interactions between characters that let it down. There was enough good stuff about the story for it to be 3 stars though, and at times so thought I might give it 4 or 5. Sadly, by the end, that wasn’t the case.

I tried so hard to like this...

99 PERCENT MINE grabbed me in with Darcy love from the off, she's an absolute feisty female with a weakness that makes her strong. I admired her attitude, her unfiltered mouth, her inner 'oh s$$t' and her outer 'don't mess with me'. That said, it really did take 20% in for me to really get fully enmeshed into the story. The 5 star rating comes from everything that overwhelmed me and took over my life from there.

Darcy Barratt is a twin, the weaker runt and her twin Jamie, well let me say, I hated that guy and his influence on the characters in this story (even though I suspect there's a story that could come from him). Darcy and Jamie had another half to them, Tom Valeska, unofficial adoptee into the Barratt clan. Darcy has loved him forever but their life has been missed opportunities and it has always been easier for her to up and leave.

Tom Valeska (I can't help saying his names together, forgive me) is solid in the friendship stakes, a support, a protector, a wannabe saviour. He comes to renovate Darcy's grandmother's house and therein starts the literal magnetism between these two. Holy chemistry, I cannot explain the draw between them and I felt right in the middle of it, like iron filings. This was a burn of slow proportions but the absolute furnace it created, blew me away. I could not put this book down, nor would I want to. It is very unlike me to feel drawn back to a book immediately but I just know I will have to read and immerse myself once again.

Sally Thorne has followed up The Hating Game with something totally different and entirely as good. No one writes dialogue like Ms Thorne and she has amply shown her diversity and also her consistency. Sorry for the glow-y-ness but I am still riding high on feelings here and I hope you will be too.

Re-read by audio June 2019 was a delightful experience. The narrator was perfection and really brought Darcy's character to life. I loved revisiting the story.

Delightful, funny and sometimes emotional

I love Sally Thorne books, such nice slow burning romances. really good to have a leading lady so feisty but fragile nd her story about railing against over care, in her opinion. very sweet.

so lovely

I loved The Hating Game, so was expecting great things from the follow up. Whilst I don’t think this has quite the story...it is an enjoyable book both to read and listen to.

A good follow up
