![]() ![]() ![]() What really sets this book apart from the rest is the writing and the characterization. ![]() ![]() The author made it work but I think it's going to put a lot of my friends off, the thought of a girl stealing her sister's man out from under her nose and basically being the OW. So, if you don't like cheating, this isn't a book for you. And even though Elena loves her weird, oddball of a sister, that doesn't stop her from flirting with her future brother-in-law every chance she gets. Nico is the head of a rival mafia family (she's an Abelli, he's a Russo) and it's supposed to be this big brokered peace offering, only- Nico seems much more interested in Elena than he is in Adrianna. Elena has a sister named Adrianna who is getting married to a guy named Nico(las). I had soooo many people recommend THE SWEETEST OBLIVION to me and I was like "WHY" and "NO WAY" because it didn't seem like something I would be into at all, but when it went on sale for 99-cents, I picked up a copy- and immediately, I was hooked. A lot of them are all "tell" and no "show." They have the guy waving his weapon around, telling us all what a bad dude he is, and it just feels like a typical new adult romance trying to talk in a bad Italian accent, courtesy of Google Translate. I'm as surprised about liking this as you probably are. ![]()
