Blog Tour: Don't Hate the Player by Katie Ashley


Amazon ~ B&N

New Adult / YA

Kissing and some smexy
this book is not your typical NA but I liked it 


How are the story lines?
Interesting and emotional


Would you read it again?
No, this has a great HEA and left me satisfied


Review: 

Emotional.  Well Written.  Realistic.  

This story is all of those and more.  When I was told by the author that this book didn't contain the normal "smexy" that other NA books contained I was still intrigued and felt the need to read it.  The moment that it started with an emotional event I knew this was going to be quite a ride.  

I love Katie Ashley's writing.  She has a way of making you feel the emotions of the characters.  Noah and Maddie go through a lot in this book and you really see how they go through each up and down of their journey.  

There is so much growth of each character.  From the moment they are dealing with death to the moment of clarity and the realization that they are both capable and deserving of love, you feel it.  I'm not going to brief you on what happens in the book.  You should read it and figure out the story for yourself.  I will however tell you that Jake, Noah and Maddie are true center stage characters and are totally worth the read.  You will not regret it.  

I laughed. 

I cried.  

I smiled, A LOT 

I got angry with Noah.  

This book had me filled with many, many emotions.  That's my favorite part of a great read - when I know I've truly connected with a book.  I come away feeling emotion.
