READ MY REVIEW ON THE BLOGThe saying to never judge a book by its cover has never been truer. This stinkin' cute book cover is a little misleading as it promises lighter literary fare like a rom-com and that's definitely not what we get with Fight or Flight. My expectations may reflect in my rating. So please make sure you read other reviews before you decide not to give this story a chance.Ava and Caleb definitely are complex characters. Both of them marked by their pasts they are still dealing...
Title: Fight or FlightAuthor: Samantha YoungRelease date: October 9, 2018Cliffhanger: NoHEA(view spoiler)[Yes (hide spoiler)]I had such high hopes for this book, and I genuinely thought I was going to love it when I started. Sadly, I left the book feeling nothing but angry and disappointed. There were so many things that didn't work for me, and the first one being where it all started: their one-night stand. Let's think about this a minute. If you encounter a man on a flight who is unbearably r...
I Hate Myself For Loving You...You remember that old Joan Jett song? Well that's what kept running through my mind while I was reading this book. Never had I read such animosity between the hero and heroine in a romance book. Yes, verbal sparring and snark, but this out and out rudeness and asshole behavior from the hero... jeez, I hated myself for continuing with this jerk! How are these two ever going to get along? Well, start with a good case of physical chemistry...So continue I did, and I'm...

ARC provided by Berkley in exchange for an honest review. “I never believed in fate until you” Fight or Flight is an enemies to lovers romance starring two people who met during a layover in an airport under the worst of circumstances. I’ve read a few books by Samantha Young and I’ve enjoyed every one, but this one had a few aspects that really did have me side-eyeing. ➽ Ava Breevort - Interior designer. Boston local. Grieving the loss of someone who used to mean a lot to her and is cu...
Netgalley provided me an e-arc of this book for review.DNF at 33%. This book is miserable and I don’t see it getting any better, so I give up. My list of things I hated about this book grew with every page I turned, so here’s an abridged list:•the characters are SO snobby, entitled, privileged, and every other word to describe those miserable cranky people you see snapping at people in airports. •the writing style was a lot of telling instead of showing, and it wrote in a lot of asides, which I
I've read it. :p
I wouldn’t call this a hate read...exactly. But considering the very rough beginning of Fight or Flight by Samantha Young, I would classify my reading mindset as “Hmm, can this be redeemed?” Turns out, it can’t. If you were curious if characters in a book could gaslight you, I’d direct you to Fight or Flight as an answer. Ava is flying back to her home in Boston from an upsetting funeral in her childhood home of Phoenix. Ava’s at the airport and wants to try and upgrade herself to first class. J...
Uh, wtf? This was hard for me to get into at first but after the 50 page mark or so I got into the groove and even started to enjoy it. BUUUUUT then there was a scene villainizing a woman for having an abortion and I am not fucking here for that shit. Bye
Instagram || Twitter || Facebook || Amazon || PinterestDNF @ 30% I'm a sucker for enemies to romances and when I heard about this book, I was kind of hoping for something akin to the Mile High Club version of THE HATING GAME. Look, we all know that airports suck. Even if everything goes off without a hitch, it's uncomfortable and mildly inconvenient at best. Romances would have us believe that there are bucket-loads of cute guys flying around at any given moment but honestly, the last time a
4.5 stars “My physical appearance was just a small fraction of who I was. I was more than a pretty bauble to hang on the tree of a man’s world.” After a horrible trip to her childhood home, Ava just wants to get the heck out of Arizona and back to her apartment in Boston. Her attempts at everything in the airport from first class upgrades to meals to the coffee cart are thwarted by a rude Scotsman…. who happens to be her seatmate on her flight. Their hatred for each other soon turns into a n
3.5 starsFight or Flight had great promise!!!I loved the banter, and who doesn't love big, blunt and grumpy Scots. That being said, if you love Samantha Young, you'll love FOF. She has a way of putting her readers through the wringer, and I mean the emotional wringer. Ever since reading her On Dublin Street, I learned to handle her books with care.Her writing is wonderful and Fight or Flight was a solid performance. It had an interesting plot and witty dialogues that produced the most awesome ba...
