Book Review: Problems

by Brea Alepoú & Skyler Snow

Finnian

Jack O’ Brien is off limits. To me, to Ronan, to Cian. None of us should want the boy with big bright eyes and a sassy tongue that we’re forced to protect.

Too bad we do.

Ronan denies it. Cian taunts him. I try to ignore his existence. Deep down I know that he needs a firm hand on his soft ass. But why do I want to be the one to give it to him?

He’s the boss's son, forbidden damn fruit, but everytime I see Jack I want to take what’s mine. Turns out so do Cian and Ronan. We’ll do whatever it takes to protect our boy. Even if we have to slaughter everyone who gets in our way.

Jack belongs to us.

Why do I do This to Myself?

I will say, this book is not for me and that is why I gave it such a low rating. Objectively speaking, the writing was acceptable and each character had distinct personality traits so it was easy to get used to these characters. Unfortunately, that is all. Everything else? I kinda dislike.

Problems has a lot of kinks I personally do not like or enjoy reading about. This book mainly circles around daddy kink and I have absolutely no issue with it, I just never thought calling my sexual partner "daddy" was hot and so I couldn't enjoy it. It also features a polyamorous relationship and I really don't mind poly relationships at all. What I do not appreciate is when I'm reading about everyone in the relationship being in love/attracted to that same one person. I like a poly relationship where all parties love each other, equal or not it doesn't matter.

Other than the relationship dynamics, there really was nothing else to read about. The plot was severely lacking, no one can convince me they enjoyed reading Problems for the storyline because let's be real here, if you enjoyed this book, it's most likely due to the smut or the tension leading up to the smut. And even with four main characters, nobody was good enough to forgo the lack of a storyline. Jack's so average, I don't understand what's so lovable about that boy. The only one I can justify for "falling in love" with Jack was Ronan, the other two? Yeah, subplots were created without including it in the book. Ronan's probably the most interesting "daddy" because for someone with his job, this man was a cinnamon roll. And like earlier on, a backstory was created without adding it into the book. Finnian's a very standard "daddy" if you know what I mean and other than his sexual tension with Cian, dude was very boring. Last but not least, Cian. This man was so unhinged. I really don't like him, Problems could have gone on without Cian. It's like the authors wanted a pinch of craziness in the book so they created Cian and gave him too much craziness.

I know I said the daddy kink is not for me but then, I also believe this book could have had so much more potential if efforts were being placed in given it more depth. I can see myself enjoying Problems if there was a better storyline in the first place.

Rating: ★☆☆☆☆ (1.5/5)

'Shucked'! "Shucks Ma'am, It's a Helluva Show!"

'Shucked' is a musical fable/farce to see for its side-splitting humor and deeper messages current for us today.

Kelley, Grey Henson in Shucked (courtesy of Matthew Murphy & Evan Zimmermann) If you love corn and even if you hate it, you will laugh at the jokes about or related to the sunny fruit (official classification) in Shucked, the funny, bright, clever, homespun musical fable/farce about love, corn and deeper things.

I just watched Reacher on Netflix and realized I want to be the Jack Reacher if monsters. Like the Winchesters but a fucking unit.

I feel you, I'm in a perpetual state of indecisiveness between "I want to bang the buff guy" and "I want to be the buff guy".
