鈥斺€擬ust read The Mara Dyer trilogy BEFORE The Becoming of Noah Shaw鈥斺€�


There鈥檚 so much time, endless time, and I stand here in the centre of it with my dick in my hand, completely clueless


***Still 5 stars in 2018 (re-read)!! Also edited original review and removed the excessive profanity *cringe* I was so naughty in 2017, apologies***

I don鈥檛 get all the dislike here because, to me, this is bloody brilliant!

I want to personally thank you, Michelle Hodkin, for being one of the only YA authors who writes THE type of YA I am on an endless quest to find! You have fulfilled me! Noah Shaw has satiated me again, as he did in the Mara Dyer trilogy. Michelle, you are an auto-buy-hardcover author for me for sure! Kudos!

I had the time of my life getting to be inside Noah Shaw鈥檚 head! And Michelle did his British-ness (monologue, dialogue, slang, mannerisms, he was so perfectly English, I was in heaven!) spot on!

I was very pleased by that because I hate it when American authors don鈥檛 do their research and botch up a Brit in their books.

*swoon moment*......British boys..........mmmm

Anyway The Becoming of Noah was one of my most anticipated new releases of 2017. And it was worth the wait. I was not let down. I was thrilled.

And pleasantly surprised that this takes place pretty much immediately following The Mara Dyer trilogy. I was expecting this to be about Noah鈥檚 dirty past. But not disappointed to find that it鈥檚 about his dirty present *heart eyes*

Fast paced, deeply interesting, we get some lovely character building on Mr-Dark-and-Brooding-Rich-Boy, we even got to join him on his home turf in the drizzly and gray United Kingdom*more heart eyes*

(Which reminds me, Noah Shaw had Tea (as in like a proper tea time, if you don鈥檛 get the context), by his own little British self, in his own little (not so little) flat! Like how freaking adorable??!)

We get a nice introduction of new characters; including an old friend of Noah鈥檚, called Goose, who I greatly enjoyed.

We get some adventure (fun!), some swoony bits (yum), and some danger. And the plot just delves into a whole new level of the drama we saw in the trilogy.

But most importantly we get some lovely-smutty-freaking-omg-hotness. Did Noah just鈥�? He really just did THAT?!! Damn, Mara....And he鈥檚 kinda kinky. And I think I died. And I love him even more.


That mouth.

That filthy British mouth of his.


Can he come to life? Please?? Can this become a show???I need to hear him talk. I need to see him smoking a cigarette, leaning up against a wall, I need to see him in that hot opening scene with Mara...


And I almost forgot, that cliff hanger??? Yes please, where鈥檚 the next book please?!!!
