Please look for The Hellbent Series, coming next. Kneeling down to hook Madman’s leash onto his collar, I fixed her with a very polished, bored expression. “You’re talking again.” I was really bummed that I knew what was going to happen however it doesn't change the way I feel about Jared and Tate's story..

Until You (The Fall Away Series): Douglas, Penelope

Blondes weren’t my thing. They always looked like good girls. Not exotic or even remotely interesting. Too pure. I love you more than myself,” I told her, “more than my own family, for Christ’s sake. I don’t want to take another step in this world without you next to me.” There's much for me to cover in this review, so I won't mince too many words here in establishing the plot, just get right to my reaction for turns of events. I wasn't going to read this given my reaction to "Bully", but considering this was the "hero" follow-up, I decided to bite the bullet and read this purely as a measure of curious/academic discourse. Meaning I read much of this through an emotional filter on purpose to see if "Until You" made the series any better than its first novel by showcasing its respective hero in the front seat. To reveal a bias upfront, I hated Jared's character in "Bully." Hated him to the finest point and I didn't think of him as a proper love interest in the slightest. I wondered how anyone could romanticize a guy who, despite the notation of his tormented past with abuse and neglect, had such an abrasive, control freak personality. I suppose I got my answer in this book with a more intimate perspective of Jared's viewpoint and experiences, but I can't say I'm happy with it at all. Holy shit 2 down 3 to go!! "Falls of chair" ekkkk I didn't realise there were FIVE books in this series..

I stood up straight, ready to just forget about it and go make myself something to eat. My mom probably wasn’t cooking tonight. I loved, loved, loved BULLY. I didn't always agree with how Jared treated Tate half of the time in that book. Even though he was such a jerk face I still fell in love with him in Bully. I wanted in badly inside his head. When Penelope announced that she would be writing a book from Jared's POV, I fist-pumped the air and jumped up and down squealing like a 10-year-old girl! Finally, we'd get to hear what Jared was thinking in some places during Bully and finally, we can get a better understanding of how someone could turn so against and so mean towards someone who was their world and best friend. There were two kinds of stupid. Stupid people that got drunk and humped trees, and stupid people that just humped trees.”

She probably didn’t even remember that I’d given it to her, but I didn’t mind that she still wore it. She could definitely fill out now. She stood up, her legs shaking, and I held onto a branch above my head as I walked both of us toward the trunk. She stared at me, almost amused. “You’ve already made me cry countless times.” And she raised her middle finger to me. “Do you know what this is?” she asked as she took it and patted the corner of her eye with it. “It’s me, wiping away the last tear you’ll ever get.” There's also information about Jared's little brother Jax and Jared's mother that weren't in "Bully", and that provided some relief, but Jax is pretty much the pawn in the manipulative games that Jared's father - from prison, plays with him. And as for Jared's mother (his poor mother) - Jared disrespects and disregards her every chance he can get.

Jared is a human leech, and he makes no qualms about it in the beginning of this novel (well past the first couple of chapters which establish how Tate and Jared met as kids, but that felt incredibly loose in establishment.) Much of the information on his past is communicated in telling form, not showing, and there were points where I wanted to be in his head for proper character development, but didn't see that. There were others I honestly wanted out of his head because of his controlling, violent demeanor - it was too much and hard to see any sympathetic qualities at all. One of the times when Tatum was being bullied by a group over insults towards her body, on one hand he didn't support that because he loved her body (and continuously reminded the reader of that in distinct objectifications), but he was perfectly willing to let Tate believe what she wanted in terms of his thoughts on the matter, making her hurt worse and gaining gratification from that. The point is some people think they have a leading role when, really, they're just supporting cast.” But I loved this story. I love Jared and Tate. I look forward to more from them. Penelope Douglas is an outstanding writer and I look forward to more from her also. In fact, I might have to bully her to write faster... other than persistently being on the move to plot tate’s demise, being in jared’s head also feels like seeing inside the brain of a horny twelve year old who’s just found his first sport illustrated magazine. he keeps making comments about tate’s hair, eyes, “athletic” body, the clothes she wears, and pointing out how all those things get him hard. on a brighter note, i really love all of the interactions he has with tate’s dad, his brother jaxon, and his mother. his father can go to hell!! i’m also less annoyed with his friendship with madoc. the whole ordeal with kc, that’s still my most disliked thing about him. oh and the speech at the end of the book, that’s nice. Obviously this was a re-telling of Bully, I get that. And I really didn't feel like it was the exact same story but it still seemed to be the same thing over and over again.

No, currently, there is no movie project for this novel. Where can I read the Until You by Penelope Douglas ?But more than Jared, I freaking ADORE Madoc! I’m really looking forward to his and Jax’s books. I still can’t stand KC, who I’m guessing is Jax’s love interest, but I hope to warm up to her by then. The best time to read a book depends on your personal schedule and preferences. Here are some suggestions: The blood spills over my lips and onto the floor like a long strip of red paint. I let it pool in my mouth until it dribbles out, since everything hurts too damn much to spit. It’s coming out of my gums and tongue, but I only hope it’s not coming up from my stomach, too. That’s the thing about change. It can be gradual. Slow and almost unnoticeable. Or it can be sudden, and you don’t even know how you could’ve been any other way.”
