Book Review: Until Friday Nights by Abbi Glines (The Field Party * 1)



Entertaining.
That is the first word that came to my mind after completing the book.
I like how fast paced the book is but truthfully, it should stop right after they got together and skipped whatever that is in between then continued on to the news of Maggie's dad.
The part where Maggie suddenly realized that their relationship is unhealthy because West is too possessive is truly unnecessary.
Everybody knows that they are gonna make up eventually and truth to be told, West has done nothing impressive to gain back Maggie's trust (which is not important apparently since Maggie is still gonna accepts him anyway).
The story line is predictable but Abbi's writing makes the story bearable and it is definitely an easy read.
I will always try to pick up some memorable quotes/messages in every book I read but it is a bit hard in this book. There are a few big messages that Abbi wanted to bring out like the real reasons behind the way Maggi protects herself after going through that life-changing event, how she finally thought through and are willing to open up and how or ways to face death whether it being a fast murder or when it is a slow bed-ridden ones but none of this messages were written in a way that is memorable enough to be etched into my hearts.
There wasn't any moments that makes my hearts clenched nor any tears were shed even when there are so many events that could lead to that (mind you, I usually cry very easily).
Like I mentioned previously, this is an easy and quick read. If you are looking for a book that is mind intriguing or experience dramatic/roller-coaster kinda feelings, you should probably skip this book.
It was my second read at the time this review was written.
Reading it for a second time was to refresh my memory of the other characters before starting the second book.
Yep, now, I am so ready for "Under The Lights"
