Review: Not what I expected

Cutters vs. Jocks was a powerful story about two people from totally different worlds who are drawn together and then pulled apart. I liked that Libby and Aiden develop their relationship over a year although the attraction between them is instantaneous. The writing style of having alternating chapters told in the first person was very well done. However, the editing left a lot to be desired; the book really could have used the services of a good proofreader. The imagery was extremely good and Libby's and Aiden's personalities were three-dimensional and believable. The secondary characters were not as well done; their personalities were rather flat. I did not like how the story ended so abruptly. When I buy a book after reading a prequel, I want it to be because I want to learn more about the people and events, not because the free prequel was a teaser so I would have to buy a book in order to complete the story. Overall, I enjoyed reading this story very much and would recommend it to others as long as they know that Libby's and Aiden's story is unfinished at the end.
