Just little things.Categories: Contemporary, Realistic Fiction, New Adult There was foreign slang in the novel even though it takes place in New York and Massachusetts so that kinda threw me out of the story each time…for instance the phrase car park was used instead of parking lot and bonnet instead of trunk. I liked the twists and I did not think the story was slow, however I did feel like some of the details were off.
I did feel for her problems, but some of them she brought on herself. She doesn’t fall apart and she pretty much goes with the flow. Norah is sorta damaged, but she handles life well for some of the problems she’s been presented with, most of which just happen to be due to circumstance…being born into a certain family where family is everything.
Norah is very into fashion and I loved reading the descriptions of her dresses as well as the homes where the parties took place. I really did like the world building and the opulence of the parties and setting. She paints with her naked body, and there was a sex scene with paint covered naked bodies…and all I could think about was the mess. I liked Norah but I think her painting is weird. And I really didn’t get why he took Norah to the very first party – if he liked her at all, he wouldn’t have done that. Josh was patient and loyal, but in the end I felt he gave in to Norah way too easily. Clint was all about lies, so he never grew on me. I liked Josh a lot, far more than I liked Clint, who was the main guy in this story. In fact, the only person who knows what’s going on in this book is Josh. You have secret societies, secrets that the boys are keeping from our heroine, Norah, and secrets that Norah is keeping from her best female friend and her main love interest. She quickly realizes the path to real love can be paved in all kinds of lies. When Norah’s past begins to intertwine with her present, what unfolds is a series of dramatic events filled with romance, mystery and dark motivations. Norah quickly becomes caught up in an emotional tug-of-war between the two guys while also trying to deal with her own secrets that follow her every day. Josh takes Norah to the Lappell’s glamorous parties in the hope of taking their friendship to the next level, but when Norah meets the handsome and elusive Clint Weston, a leader in the Lappell, he sweeps her off her feet in more ways then one. Her move allows her to reconnect with Josh, her best friend, who is more then thrilled at Norah’s appearance back into his life.Īt the same time that Norah steps back into Josh’s heart, she learns that he is in the process of being accepted into McLaren’s uber exclusive secret society, the ‘Lappell’. Passionately driven artist, Norah Ross, has been banished from New York to Morewell for her final semester of graphic design at McLaren University.
