Just wanted to say before you start reading this (for whatever reason) that these are MY opinions and it’s completely fine if you disagree with them, just don’t go on hating on me because of that.
Honestly speaking, I started reading this with an open mind and with low expectations after some messes in this Mafiaverse. I really, really tried liking Marcella and Maddox and tried sympathizing with them but the one word I have to describe this whole experience is: annoying.
Marcella is CONSTANTLY annoying and saying things like “I’m not vain, I’m not a spoiled princess” blablabla and then proceeds to worry more about how nice the teeth of the person who’s kidnapped are than about the fact they kidnapped her??? And her worrying more about Maddox smoking in the room than about other stuff in that moment?
I found it weird how Marcella was trying to ‘seduce’ and ‘manipulate’ Maddox into doing what she wanted but she couldn’t even use the word for oral sex. Not to mention the moment when someone CUT a piece her ear off and she was more worried about being ugly and about what other people would say than about the fact she LOST A PIECE OF HER EAR?????
Maddox was pretty inconsistent too. Out of nowhere he decided to change his whole perception on life and give up on his revenge, one he was working on for YEARS, for a girl who he knew was trying to manipulate him. I understand he was in love but it happened way too fast.
Even Luca did something weird; trusting Maddox with a motorcycle just because Marcella asked him too. It was kind of out of character for him, in my opinion.
Overall, AMO WAS THE HIGHLIGHT OF THE BOOK I ABSOLUTELY LOVED HIM AND CAN’T WAIT FOR HIS BOOK.
