A review by talk2mahita
Mr. Garcia by TL Swan
1.0
This book epitomizes all the things I dislike in the T.L. Swan books that I have DNF’d.
The on again off again, and overall back and forth between the two characters was exhausting and significantly annoying by the 30% mark. By, the 50% I wanted to chuck my iPad in the trash and rinse my brain out, but nevertheless I persevered—and skimmed the remainder of the book to see how they finally ended up together.
I didn’t like either of the main characters—both were so self destructive and un-relatable to myself at least. I hate that April would willingly volunteer herself to the capriciousness and volatility of a fucked-up relationship with Sebastian. I would have just cut my losses and moved on…seriously, that can’t be healthy. April and Sebastian know they’re both self sabotaging, but refuse to try harder to be better for each other—that speaks to a pretty unstable foundation for a relationship.
When April said she would give up anything, including her job, for a relationship with Sebastian, that’s when I truly called it quits on this one and skimmed to finish. Why would you do that for a clearly relationship-unfriendly dude?? These two should not have ended up together.
If you’re looking for a better T.L. Swan book to read over this epically hot mess, I would recommend the Miles High Club series which have much better storylines and likable characters.
