    “Even gold can tarnish if you don’t take care of it” no??? it can’t??? that’s like, one of the better known qualities of gold. you’d think mr former teenage bajillionaire would know that

    "With an IQ of 160..."

    I have never read this book and I doubt I ever will, but I just love it *so* much. It's so stupid I am obsessed. newlynova called Josh's destination "Central America Country Unknown" in her review and this phrase has been living in my head rent-free, but to learn from your video that it's *directly* mentioned while also talking about this super specific bakery makes it even better omg

    1. "I don't want a party, I want revenge" from a 12yo immediately made me think of Artemis Fowl, and I cackled
    2. I hate that the singing scene made me tear up. I would absolutely die if I was Ava in that situation and it's objectively cringe to do public grand gestures like that, but somehow it still made me nearly cry. why.

    Of all the main characters I want to step into the book and save, Ava is at the top of the list. She was so close to moving on with her life but he wore her down over a year by stalking her and even if she tried to get away from him how could she? He apparently controls law enforcement all over the world, has his own “clean-up” crew so he can get away with murder, and has endless resources. Its so scary and I hate it. 😭 On a lighter note thanks for another excellent rant review! ❤

    • @readrantreview
      @readrantreview  2 месяца назад +3

      Dude I know!!! The end pissed me off more than anything, she was so close to moving on and genuinely was afraid when he found her. UGH.
      But thank you 😊

    I've heard readings (or summerizing) of that novel before and this Alex guy keeps reminding me of a weird romancy version of Batman. He really feels like a fanfic Batman. A forever unemotional grumpy dude who only wants revenge on the board room floor and in the streets of Gotham for his parents murder.
    As far as tropey book go, it's not *too bad* I still despise the boundaries pushing and the possessiveness of the Love Interest but there's a bit more substance and justification for why a character is the way they are than in most of these books.
    Edit: and the ending is pretty refreshing with Ava not being completely destroyed and deciding to make herself move on and do things she wants to do.
    Yay healthy 👍that's rare in those books
    ...but then all of it is ruined when mister Love Interests decides he's gonna *STALK HER* until she takes him back.
    He could've just, y'know, told her he really dud love her at any point during those months instead of going all the way to London to stalk her but noooo
    You were this close book, this close 👌

    Ok so around 1:07:30 he gets her a new phone that's the latest on the market or not on the market yet and it cost ungodly amounts of money. Only, for some reason, when you said phone I heard "thong" and just became progressively more confused as the sentence went on. He put a what on the counter? Oh, it's a rare, premium thong, that tracks for a rich weirdo I guess?? HOW MUCH FOR A THONG???

    I half-expected the bakery to be a real place opened by Ana's bestie's cousin and this was just her way to give it a shoutout. Also, I love a 2 hour rant about a book I have zero interest in picking up!

    • @readrantreview
      @readrantreview  2 месяца назад +1

    Alumnus is masculine singular, alumni is masculine plural, alumna is female singular and alumnae is feminine plural. My time as a sorority girl comes in handy sometimes. (I would have just used alum, since it skips the ugly ending of masculine singular )
