Review: Dirty Red (Love Me With Lies, #2) by Tarryn Fisher


Dirty Red (Love Me With Lies, #2) by Tarryn Fisher

Blurb from Goodreads:
Dear Opportunist,

You thought you could take him from me, but you lost. Now, that he's mine I'll do anything to keep him. Do you doubt me? I have everything that was supposed to be yours. In case you were wondering; he doesn't ever think about you anymore. I won't let him go....ever.
Dirty Red

My Review:

Holy $&;*!!!!!!!!!! What else can I say? I think my heart stopped beating several times while reading this book. Anyone that reads my blog knows that The Opportunist was my favorite adult book of last year and Dirty Red may be even better! I don't know how Tarryn Fisher is able to write from a character's POV who you really, really, really don't want to like and still make you feel bad for her but she did it again (she is a goddess!) Now, don't get me wrong, I am Team Caleb/Olivia 110% but poor Leah!

This book was told from Leah's POV and if you think Olivia is a mastermind, wait until you get into Leah's head. While reading the book, there were times that I seriously thought, how on earth could someone do that? But, of course, Tarryn was able to seamlessly weave Leah's cruel, cruel past into the present to provide vital insight into Leah's actions. The ending seriously gave me a heart attack -- I was delighted, stupefied and heartbroken all at once!

I can't believe I am going to have to wait to so long for book #3 from Caleb's POV -- seriously, how will I wait? Tarryn, thank you for giving us another absolutely amazing, heartbreaking, soul shaking book!

I love this trope, sub-genre, setting: My Best Friend's Brother/My Brother's Best Friend

I Love This Trope, Sub-Genre, Setting is a new feature on my blog in which I discuss a trope, sub-genre or setting that I love and tell you about books that are shining examples of said trope, sub-genre or setting.  Feel free to play along and please let me know about your favorite books in this realm and whether you like this trope, sub-genre and/or setting as much as I do! Today I am spotlighting the trope of:  My Best Friend's Brother/My Brother's Best Friend , which I would define as any book where the heroine either has a crush on or falls for her brother's best friend or her best friend's brother. I have to confess that I love this trope in nearly all of its iterations!  I have a younger brother so I never got to crush on any of his friends but it's fun reading about that and it's equally as fun as reading about falling for your best friend's brother -- instant sisters!  I know there are a ton

Conversations With Myself (& Hopefully You): ARC Greed

This discussion is inspired by my feelings lately when reading and reviewing ARCs versus the feelings I had when I requested those same ARCs: ARC GREED ARC greed -- have we all experienced this?  What I even mean by this term is that I sometimes feel overwhelmed when looking at Netgalley and Edelweiss and  I sometimes over-request, if only because I can!  I get greedy when I see all the new and shiny ARCs available and I will sometimes request things that have even a hint of interest for me, not necessarily focusing only on those books that I really, really want.  The problem with this over-requesting and with getting greedy with requesting (and receiving) ARCs is when it comes time to read and review these ARCs.  Last month and this month, I have looked at my ARCs with a release date in each respective month and I just haven't wanted to read any of them.  I need to start asking myself -- If I was immediately approved for this ARC, would I read it right thi
