I am having some mixed emotions on this post. I LOVE LOVE
LOVE this book. My mixed emotions are that I am way too excited to write about
E of N to wait but I feel like once I finish this post it’s kind of over and
that is totally sad. I first read this
book quite some time ago and have since re-read it a couple of times. I said in
my about me section that I stumbled upon the romance genre by accident and E of
N was the book that cemented by addiction. The book has everything you could
ever want; adventure, secrets, sex, and one of my all time favorite book
boyfriends-Andrew!!
I love the whole concept of the book, that Camryn is just
over “normal” life and jumps on a bus to have experiences. I always love a book
with dual P.O.V.’s and the way Redmerski does it in E of N is great, you get to
see both sides of the story, especially early on, in the bus before they really
know each other. You see Andrew’s calculated reasons for why he does the things
he does and see how he was protecting and watching over her from the beginning.
“…There’s always, always a single shoe on the shoulder
somewhere. What is it with the shoes?” Come on, you know this is true and you have
wondered it yourself.
Cam is a girl after my own heart. She doesn’t want to live
life by the rules, wants to see the world, loves a good messy side braid, and
loves Pink and The Civil Wars. I am totally on the same page with all of that.
Andrew Parrish is the ultimate book boyfriend! He’s got
tattoos, plays guitar and sings, loves classic rock, and cried watching the
notebook and admits it. What more could you want?! He helps Cam find herself in
general and sexually.
Time for some girl talk! Girls… we’ve all had or have that
friend, right? She’ll do anything for you but the two of you are just so
different and you don’t see eye to eye on almost anything. She doesn’t take
criticism well and denial is her best friend. I don’t know about you but I am
totally relating here. I’ve known that girl; I’ve been friends with that girl!
And this is how I see the relationship between Camryn and her best friend
Natalie.
*BIG SPOILER IN THIS PARAGRAPH*
Andrew has an “out of the box” life philosophy because of
his brain tumor and Cam has her life philosophy because she feels like she is
dead on the inside. Together their philosophies make them perfect for one
another and they found each other at the perfect time on a road to nowhere.
“If you were to let me fuck you, you would have to let me
own you.” Um… Goose bumps: Check. Yup, got them. “I belong to you, Andrew
Parrish… I want you to own me.” There go those goose bumps again.
Did you love The edge of Never as much as I did, did you
hate it? Agree or disagree with something I have written about? Leave a
comment, let me know, let’s get a conversation started!!
Wonderful review! Thank you so much and I'm glad you enjoyed it. :-)
