This is definitely a book for adults.Access-restricted-item true Addeddate 14:07:43 Boxid IA40302815 Camera USB PTP Class Camera Collection_set printdisabled External-identifier If I ignore that they were essentially strangers though, Jasper says some pretty romantic things. He became intense right off the bat, and at times, if I was in her shoes, I would have been running for the hills, thinking I was going to end up chained in his basement.


Rita did as well, but she is definitely the realist of the two. I liked his backstory of being the town whore, until waking up after a bender, and hearing the women in the town talking about him as if he was nothing more than a walking sex toy, causing him to do a 180, and become celibate until he could find a woman who would take a chance and give him more than sex. Her mother picking her to teach the art of cooking, being who she was, put a lot of pressure on her, that took the joy out of it. It was interesting that it was Rita who was so adamant to complete their mothers final wish, when in a way, she was the most damaged by her mother, although not intentionally.

I always saw the whole emo style as more of a teenage/college student thing, so it's weird to read about a professional adult looking that way.
