Not my cup of tea...
I know that Pucked has tons of four & five star reviews already on Goodreads; however, it seems that what worked for other readers did not work for me.
I struggled a lot with the overabundance of sex and genitalia fixation vs the lack of depth, character development, and plot. The story line seemed to flow in a complete circle that consisted of sex, running, groveling, and talking to or about body parts—wash, rinse, repeat. This made it extremely hard to connect with either Alex or Violet. Not to mention the weird terminology for body parts that were way over used such as Beaver and Monster C*ck. That right there really ruined a lot of the book for me. The author referred to the female genitalia as Beave/Beaver 82 times and Mc/Monster C*ock close to 60 times, with a few other names thrown in. It got old fast. Although there were moments I found them entertaining, it felt as though there were not enough of those to grasp on to when it came to their overall personalities, issues, and quirks; unfortunately, due to this, I was either not entertained, annoyed, or rolling my eyes 75% of the book.
I am a huge fan of the tongue in cheek type of humor (Tara Sivec and R.L. Mathewson), usually laughing my butt off at these types of books, as well as rate fairly high for enjoyment. However, in the case of Pucked, it was a missed attempt at raunchy humor. Sadly, Pucked was one of those stories that left me without the ability to form a coherent thought at the end.
