Biting Point by Azalea Amy Lezlynn Blog Tour Review

I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review for Stephanie’s Book Reports.

Kaidence is a lonely, bullied throughout her life, successful business owner, living at home with her parents. She has two best friends and a family who really love her. She wants the fairy tale, the happily ever after. She’s given up. But just when you give up life will usually surprise you. Titian is Kaidence ‘s surprise. From the first moment he looks into her eyes he knows he’s found who he wants in his world. An illegal underground street racing world where Titian is the King of the Griffin League.

I nearly put this book down and did not finish it. I’m nothing if not a determined reader. I can honestly say this is not my favorite book I’ve ever read. It’s confusing at times and borders on a paranormal side at times. Kaidence has the most unique eyes ever and they effect people. Her eyes always seem to draw people to her and it’s the reason Titian knew she was the one. Kaidence though thinks he’s the devil the first time she actually meets Titian. There’s the moments he speaks to her in Italian and she can hear the translation in her own head like he’s telling her. And their connection is so strong there heart beats as one and she gets vibrations when he’s near. Their soul connected. I just found some of these things odd and they had me as a reader feeling like I was missing something. Why do her eyes effect people like they do? And so on. Biting Point is filled with descriptions. A lot of description which makes it really wordy. Every outfit from head to toe, every room, every car, right on down to the iPhone 6 Plus he uses and the Samsung Note 6 she uses. There’s a who is doing this mystery in the book that is easily figured out but does lead to some exciting moments toward the end. Not that the book didn’t have the potential to be interesting it just gets lost in all the descriptions. I also get that Kaidence’s character is a plus size girl, I just wasn’t a fan of how it’s mentioned a lot. Why can’t she love lingerie and not plus size lingerie? It just bothered me a lot. We are all different shapes and sizes. I just didn’t like the labels all the time. And lastly strawberries have been ruined for me for the rest of my life. I’ll never ever be able to look at one again and not be reminded of a scene in this book. Ewwww, just ewwww.

Biting Point is a book about the ultimate love of Kaidence’s and Titan’s life. A love story that had the potential to be heartbreakingly beautiful but just fell short for me.
