Reckless (Thoughtless, #3)

First off, I'm thankful that this book came out early. Since this book is on my list of BOOKS I WANT TO HAVE ASAP!!! I'm grateful that I get to read it first among others. After seeing people read books I long to read and them making comments on how great it is here in GR make me want to smack them at times (hey can't blame me I'm freaking jealous okay?). Now for me reading this ahead of others was just..........F*CKING SWEET!!! With that said now for the review......
I would say I was extremely excited when I got my hands on this book.....I even did the happy dance in the bookstore where I got it (no kidding). Why? WELL HELLO....KELLAN KYLE? My fictional boyfriend of all time!!! The man whore of all man whores. The rock god of all rock gods. The hot troubled guy of all hot troubled guys. He epitomizes T.H.E. G.U.Y.! But alas, as much as I wanted to love this book as much as I LOVE the first two books.....I just didn't. =(
Don't get me wrong guys (and please don't hate me) I did like the story. We knew from the start that Kellan and Keira will get their happy ending. And this book coming out we all wanted to know how they would "get" their happy ending. The story was just ok. The feeling that I had when I read Love Unrehearsed it was the same feeling I got after finishing this book. Wherein I waited for a lllllllllooooooooonnnnnnnggggggg time for the book to come out only to be mildly disappointed with it. The story was just so-so. I kinda expected how the story would go as I read along. And to my dismay Kellan was not as swoon worthy as he was on the first two books. But Keira I loved her here. How she puts up with Kellan's fame. How she has Anna's back. How she was with Denny. I truly adore her here.
But Griffin and Anna.....they were hilarious here and sweet! Would you believe that Griffin being sweet? Well he was and I adore him even though at times he was a douchebag (which was most of the time). I guess I would say that Griffin and Anna's story was more significant for me than Kellan and Keira's story.
All in all it was still a good book. I don't wanna say more since it's not yet out. But again I would say that I like the first two books more (especially Thoughtless).

"Griffin: And I'll have you know, I've only fucked about five people this year, and nobody since Anna told me she was knocked up. So yeah, I do fucking care about her. I think I may even fucking love her.

What???? Nooooo, don't do that to me, Say!
nice review Say....you didn't give anything away which is good,but i expected that amount of stars,as usual with certain books,they should end with two books or a stand alone!
Taznim wrote: "nice review Say....you didn't give anything away which is good,but i expected that amount of stars,as usual with certain books,they should end with two books or a stand alone!"Precisely!!! I guess since we all love the first two books we are all itching for more Kellan and at times we just don't get the "wow" we want which is sad.
Glass wrote: "What???? Nooooo, don't do that to me, Say!"Oh Glass, this was really tough for me. I wanted to rate it a perfect 5 but I just can't. I was just not overwhelmed as I was in the first two books which was for me one of the best reads I have read in all time.
How did you get book so fast? Shouldn't it be out on March 5th? I ordered UK edition.:)

Was there cheating in this one? That's what has me nervous (with the title). I had my fill of their cheating in Thoughtless.
It came out early ??

Alicia wrote: "It came out early ??"here in the Philippines it came out early (I don't know why) since most of the times we're late her. read it a week ago....
Your so lucky !! I can't wait lol
Great review with no spoilers :) you will probably be one of the minority who did not love Reckless! I for one loved it! Exceeded all my expectations. It was good to read about KK without all the constant angst. Kellan is major swoon worthy as usual & my ultimate book boyfriend of all time. Can't wait for you all to read this xx

Alicia wrote: "Your so lucky !! I can't wait lol"just wait for it.....i'm lucky for now since most books here in the Philippines comes out late.
I have to say I def agree about the love unrehearsed comparison, it totally reminded me of that as well. I think I'm a sucker for angst because I really missed it in this book. But kellan is always swoon worthy!

I totally agree about the Love Unrehearsed. I say that ALL the time and it was the first thing I compared it to today. The angst, thrill of the first/second book were so good that the feel good nature of LU2 and Reckless was just...weird, but overall still amazing. At least we got what we wanted, a happy ending. :)

totally agree with your entire review. I missed the passion in this story.
agreed 100% with your review!
I was dreading being the odd one out who didn't love this as much as I love the first two books.......but I miss the old Kellan here.
Leslie wrote: "agreed 100% with your review!"Thanks I was just disappointed with Kellan here.

I felt the same about this book. It was only OK for me and it left me a little bit disappointed...
Lucia wrote: "I felt the same about this book. It was only OK for me and it left me a little bit disappointed..."Yeah I know....which is hard since we all love Kellan but I just couldn't give it a rating higher than 3.
Well I'm glad to see I'm not the only one that feels this way. I'm still half way through and I'm actually struggling to finish it, I even ended up putting it down and reading another book and then coming back to this!
I wish I had read this review before I bought the book... I totally forgot about the other 2 in the series until I saw this one. I loved the first 2 but I am struggling to finish this one. I'm finding Keira irritating to say the least... I kind of wish I'd left it at the two as this is putting me off the author that I really really liked... Boo
