Emoji Review by Rebecca Dixon
I finished βDonβt Rush Me (Nora Jacobs Book 1)β by Jackie May and it was GREAT π€©!! (FYI, Iβm not affiliated with the author and there are NO spoilers! ππ»)
OK β ! So I actually read this book several years ago and I was talking π£οΈ to someone about it the other day β¦ and how it didnβt feel like a typical RH π (it felt more like an Urban Fantasy to my recollection)β¦ so I decided to do a RARE π¦ re-read (I say rare because these days there are soooooo many AMAZING π€© books out that it is SUPER rare I re-read π²) And so I thought to myself, βIβll just pick it up and give it ONE chapter or soβ¦ just to spark β‘οΈmy memory π§ some,β And!! I couldnβt put it down ππ»ππ»ππ»! I LITERALLY read this book in one day! I LOVE IT β€οΈ!
So I just have to say that if you are a UF fanβ¦ this is DEFINITELY your cuppa tea βοΈ! It is fast-paced ππ»ββοΈ, streamlined writing βοΈ that constantly had me page π turning! The characters are GREAT and super relatable.. honestly βπ», it really reminds me of the way I feel about the characters in Kate Daniels or Mercy Thompson or The Hollows ππ»! And you would NEVER know from Book 1 that it is a RH (not that itβs GOOD ππ» or BAD ππ»β¦ just that it is different and I LOVED β€οΈ IT ππ»!) Iβm still scratching π€ my head wondering how it will all play out, even though Iβve read the series before π (again, itβs been years!)
So whatβs it about?? The story kicks 𦡠off with our FMC riding a bus π in downtown Detroit and she gets this weird feeling that someone means her HARM π±! There are several people that could fit the bill π΅, but she soon finds out its someone who is extremely infatuated π with her!! One thing leads to another and she convinces the dude to take her to a sup π§ββοΈ πΊ π§ββοΈ club where he (a human π§πΌββοΈ) would most likely get what he deserved β οΈ! But it never occurred π€ to her that if a mere human π§πΌββοΈis obsessed with herβ¦ how would the sups π§ββοΈ react?!? ππ Throw π in the fact she can read peopleβs thoughts π by TOUCH βπ»AND there is a crime π΅οΈββοΈ that needs solvingβ¦ this plotline is a pretty big page-turner πππ!! ππ»ππ»ππ»
This IS a COMPLETED series and Book 1 is a SUPER slow π’ burn. Iβd actually have to say there is NO β burn at allβ¦ again, this feels VERY UFβ¦ but with it, there are several HUNKY π₯΅ guys that are basically OBSESSED β€οΈβπ₯ with our girl! Honestly, itβs EXACTLY ππ»the kind of book I LOVE β€οΈβ¦ having the FMC be the center of DESIROUS π₯ attention, while also having really LIKEABLE π characters. I think Iβm IN LOVE π₯°π₯°π₯° with Big-T and the way he goes on rampages ππ» for our girl! Everyone knows you shouldnβt mess with a TROLL π§ after all!! πππ
So if you LOVE fast-paced ππ»ββοΈ writing, a sassy & strong πͺπ» FMC with a special ability that can help solve a mystery π, several HOT π₯΅ dudes that are OBSESSED π β€οΈβπ₯ with our girl (knowing that hey, it may all work out since itβs a RH π!,) a world π with lots of different sups π§ββοΈπΊπ§ββοΈ and a couple ENDEARING πcharacters that you CANβT WAIT to see more ofβ¦ then give this a shot! Itβs Free on KU and you never know, it may just captivate π you!
