Rating: 3 out of 5
Date: 09 10, 2011
All the Wrong Reasons by JL Paul is a charming and entertaining story.Character run down:Irelyn- aspiring authorDustin- Irelyn's long-term boyfriendLucas- a guy Irelyn meets one night that changes her life foreverWillamina- Irelyn's unconventional but loving motherTommy- Irelyn's younger cousin who is raised by Irelyn's motherBailey & Morgan- Irelyn's loyal and supportive best friendsIrelyn's grandfather- a controlling and arrogant bastardAll the Wrong Reason has a great plot!! Irelyn finds herself in a difficult position, and she must decide which path to take. Should she do what's easiest and makes other people happy? Or should she follow her heart and do what makes her truly happy?Other people's lives and feelings hang on her decision so she must decide.This was a great adult romance. I wish Irelyn could have made some realizations and decisions sooner than she did, but she got there in the end so I guess that's what counts.I gave All the Wrong Reasons by JL Paul 3 STARS (3.5 STARS). I couldn't help but compare this novel to Thoughtless by S.C. Stephens (which happens to be one of my absolute favorite novels). All the Wrong Reasons was unique and its own story, but it resembled Thoughtless in a few ways. Both novels are about a love triangle where the "other" guy is in a rock band that frequently plays at the same location. I really enjoyed All the Wrong Reasons, but if I had to pick between the two novels I would pick Thoughtless 10 times out of 10. However, I strongly recommend this novel to fans of Thoughtless and vice versa. I look forward to reading the next book in the series, Vicious Circles.-XOXOReading, Eating & DreamingFOR MORE REVIEWS CHECK OUT MY BLOG ON BLOGSPOT: READING, EATING & DREAMING I WAS BLAIR WALDORF
