My Killer Vacation

Product Information

These characters lacked backstory, the writing felt choppy, the murder mystery was overshadowed because of how horny they were. He guarded Taylor day and night, helped Jude when he was stung by jellyfish because he could see how much it upset Taylor to see her brother hurt, and always put her sexual needs first and was not just blue balled but seriously purple/blackballed. Since the characters came off very stereotypical on their own, their romance came off as very formulaic as well. Even though he is uncertain of getting her help, he also does not seem to be able to stay away from her.

all myles (mmc) did was protecting taylor (fmc), at some point i wasn’t sure if he wants to find the killer or just wants to spend time with taylor.

But actually the more we got to know Myles, the more we saw his personality, he is so protective of the ones he loves.

two opposites that make one hot rom-com that makes you fall in love, laugh and cry in the best of ways. I’ve been so excited to read this, I’ve seen this book advertised everywhere on other people's instagrams and tiktoks. I've stopped reading after they started getting too fond of each and the unsexiest dirty talk made an appearence once again, so I can't tell you if it got better after this. i for the life of me can't understand why there are so many 4-star and 5-star ratings for this book. This man meets her, and immediately thinks about her in sexual scenarios, but it's not even that, it's that it's not sexy, and it's supposed to be sexy, since this is a romance novel.Tessa Bailey's writing is something that grips you from beginning to end, makes you laugh out loud and bite your nails to get to the next chapter as quickly as possible.

myles and taylor fell for each other in such a natural way that i fully believed it was possible for insta-love to exist. I’m very sorry to be one of, like, three people who didn’t love this book, but I’m very happy for all of you who completely disagree with me! Myles is adorable and so grumpy-honest, looks like he could kill you but is actually a cinnamon roll, morally grey ish, touch her and die ish, who did this to you ish. She perceives herself as the serious, responsible type adult but reality is something else (not in an annoying way).

Obviously, Young Adult books are THE best, but I do have a soft spot for poetry and adult books also. I'm hoping that the rest of her books are different, because I've been meaning to read them and I'd prefer not to hate them, you know.

Some books contain both plot and sensual sequences, but this one contained only steamy scenes with no plot. they later have a fight and he is like "stop strutting that ass so sexy" and she is like "are you saying, i'm asking for it" and he's like "i would never but you are clearly offering" - this isn't any less disgusting and rapey than if he said she was asking for it? which brings me to another point: why doesn't she just talk to her finance guys about wanting to be killed during sex? i’m obsessed with the way he discovered her red, hook-up panties and stole them because he hated the idea of her wearing them for anyone else. And then there's the typical "they want each other but she wants a relationship and he doesn't so they shouldn't be together but they are oh so attracted to each other that they just can't help it" until they eventually admit their feelings and solve the mystery.

She never once pushed Myles to change instead, she allowed him to open his own eyes and dream of more! The will-they-won't-they bullshit we were lead to endure by his POV was exausting because poor fucker was on a spiral that convinced no one but himself; he was like "she's so innocent and lovely and she doesn't deserve a man like me. It was supposed to be a relaxing vacation in sweet, sunny Cape Cod - just me and my beloved brother - but discovering a corpse in our rental house really throws a wrench into our tanning schedule. She goes on a totally out of character oversharing mode and tells him all about her sexual fantasies out of nowhere and for no reason in particular other than the author obviously wanted us to feel the tension building.
