Just a question, though, where on God's green Earth Montana, USA did Autumn landed wherein she couldn't get to a pharmacy and her response to a drunken unprotected sex is "hey, if it happens, I guess then I'm prEGnAnT, ain't it?"
I just needed something to rinse the God-awful feeling of meh slump-inducing reads and heavy non-fiction. It did the job. I was entertained, midly ... I guess ... for a brief moment. Well, it at least had a spark, just one though.

Fast, sloppy writing, cardboard characters. Everything is incredibly juvenile and ridiculous. So many nonsense, so few cowboys. Good premise, mediocre execution. I might read the rest if only for Jamie.
Good thing it's free.

What garbage.
I can't believe how many people bought into romanticizing and condoning sex-offenders. Most of the 4-5 star rating are raving about the "mother's love", Adrianne's devotion to Noah blah blah blah. Not me. I was sitting quietly in the corner, disgusted.

I was holding my breath hoping for a moral breakthrough that NEVER came.
If he’d been their age, it would’ve been labeled innocent fun. Playing doctor. It wasn’t as if he’d forced himself on them. He hadn’t. They’d been the ones to touch first. I didn’t blame the girls, though. It wasn’t their fault. They had no idea what they were doing. None. Their touch and exploration was completely innocent. Nothing sexual about it, but it hadn’t been innocent for Noah, and he wasn’t their age, which made it a crime. I understood that, but their lives weren’t going to be ruined forever. They just weren’t. But, the world wouldn’t be satisfied until they’d annihilated him. He was more of a victim than those girls, but society would never see it that way. They saw it as him getting what he deserved.
All he did was touch the girls. There was no penetration or insertion of any kind ... He’d touched them, and they’d touched him. That’s all. It didn’t make it right. It was disgusting and wrong, but he didn’t physically hurt them. Not even close to how he’d been brutalized and stripped of his dignity.
I cannot believe how selfish Adrianne is. I'd like to bash Adrianne's head on the wall when I get a chance. She really had the temerity to walk around and ask for sympathy and respect while she diminishes the effects of Noah's actions to his victims every chance she gets? They'll be fine, we'll pay for therapy. How fucking revolting! Victim-complex unlike any other �

How is Noah a victim though? He is reaping the results of his actions! I guess don't be a pedophile next time?
I understood his shock and the horror. What Noah did was abhorrent, but he was our son. No matter what he’d done, he was still our son. I couldn’t sever my love for him any more than I could cut off my arm.
This right here is the reason I could never be a parent. I can detach and throw the whole person away in a snap.

It's incredibly slow moving for something with very saturated plot and fast-pace timeline. I was intrigued by the idea of a Four-Monkey Killer, a vigilante of some kind, doling out justice to those he deemed are 'evil' according to the Japanese statue of the three wise monkey. I was hoping for something shocking, a twist or a revelation but I simply was too bored to even follow the crime-solving plot of this book something I usually dig. The only thing that's shocking about this is 4MK's mom being a murdering bisexual hussy screwing their neighbor, the tramp Mrs. Carter.
tw: gratuitous violence.
