LOL!  What story is it?  And how old is the author? Is it their first story? ???

I find young or new authors have trouble with lemons - um writing lemons.  I don't know about their personal lives LOL!

It's a Bella/Jasper fic. It's actually very good, minus the PG rated intimacy....(still  :wtf: over this) and the fact that we spent about 140 pages with Bella's inner monologue and refusing to acknowledge feelings. I'm all for UST but Jeeeeesus. 140 pages of her whining and I'm  :shut_up:

I'm not kidding, I just about  :33: when I got to the one sentence that describe the first time of intimacy. And....there's not a JPOV. Thankfully she has some chapters posted with JPOV in another fic, but it's just for a couple of the chapters. I will never understand why authors don't include JPOV/EPOV.  I NEED to hear what the dude says!!

I don't think she's young, her writing doesn't lead me to believe that at all. She's great with her words...she just needs more description in there lol.

Oh, I got so wrapped up in bitching that I almost forgot, it's Long Way Down You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login

Excessive inner monologue will make me flounce fast :P

Totally drives me crazy. ;)  UST and fade to black I can deal with.  Too many years of reading Harlequin Romances LOL! :D

Yea, I'm not a fan of the fade to black (obv lol) unless I willingly go into it knowing that it's a T rated fic.

I'm not even sure 'monologue' is the correct term for this one....I'm having trouble articulating my issues with it. Just the fact that there were so many pages of no-progress simply b/c they wouldn't communicate annoyed me to no end. This is probably the first Bella that I've kinda wanted to  :violent-smiley-007: she is annoying me that badly.

That all said, I still haven't flounced. I do love this Jasper and the only thing keeping me in it is his character and his POV.  And I'm waiting for the time when they have to face Edward again.

I do feel bad that I seem to have to turned you away, Matron... It's not a bad fic, well written as I said. Just seems to not be my cuppa tea I suppose.

ETA: It's her obsessive inner thoughts. That's what I was trying to say.

Inner thoughts and inner monologues are pretty much the same to me.  ;)

Both are great if done within reason.  But when it's page after page? Yeah, I'm bored and. ...Oh! Is that a bunny??  :bunny: :bunny: :bunny:

Oooooo a new story!!!!!  Um yeah, where was I??  :D :D :D

I kind of understand what you were saying.  Sometimes its just kind of a background or what they are feeling.  Other times it's a full on conversation or argument.  And then sometimes it's something in between.  Either way?  A little is good,  funny is better and too much is boredom. ;)

Once I saw which one it was, I'll still end up reading it, that one was fairly interesting to me. :) I might have to squeeze in a real book first though, lol.

Yes! Exactly! Not a conversation with herself so much as just her thought. Her endless thoughts lol.

That all said....WE HAVE A LEMON. I was hoping that when they finally did the deed it wouldn't be glossed over as before and it wasn't.

Gawd, I really sound like a pervert lmao

A real book?  I vaguely remember something like that...   :P
You held out your hand, and I took it without stopping to make sense of what I was doing. For the first time in almost a century, I felt hope.

It's....tastefully done (lol). Not p0rn graphic but not PBS worthy, either. It was a good lemon, but pretty much the only one. Sex is mentioned but again, glossed over.

I haven't read a 'real' book since I read the Twilight saga....over 3 years ago.

Well I'm still new enough to the fandom, but I manage to sneak in a regular book once every few weeks.

I'm almost done with Insecurities. It's pretty good, but I don't think it's going to go in my favorites list. I like my Jasper rougher, I like to see the cowboy come out. But the story is really good, Edward is quite the twat in this one.

I have to read an Edward story next. If I keep reading stories like this one I'll end up hating the guy!

Well right now I want to punch someone!
Sorry but you are not allowed to view spoiler contents.
Why is the author doing this!!! Just when I thought it was all going to get sorted...Thank you for not telling me the story, I don't want it spoilt but still...WTF is going on!!

Right got that rant off my chest...Ella you'll know what I mean..

NB Also if the way I'm reacting to Bella/Jasper in this is any indication, I don't think I'll ever be able to read a whole B/J story??  :57:

Hmmm....I believe he is a bit of a twat here as well. But damn. That story and The Quiet Room are my top fav Jasper fics so far. Edward doesn't make an appearance in The Quiet Room which was a nice change from all his douchiness in the other fics.
