For 100 Days by Lara Adrian

3.0

For 100 Days is the first book in Lara Adrian's newest trilogy. The entire trilogy follows Avery Ross and Dominik Bane and the books are definitely not stand alone stories. I have been a fan of Ms. Adrian's for years, so I was really excited when I read about this story. Unfortunately for me, the book fell flat. I wasn't really invested in the story until abut 75% of the way through and I found myself putting the book down to do other things. That is very unusual for me. Normally once I start a book you don't see me until it's done. Now, despite saying that, this wasn't a bad story, it just didn't grip me the way that many books have in the past. Going into this book I didn't realize two things that may have made me reconsider reading it. Those two thing are that the story ends in a cliffhanger and that the book is told in first person from one character's perspective. I'm not a fan of either of those things. I can deal with first person if I must, but it makes for a better story (at least to me) when I get both characters perspectives. The fact that this story ended in a cliffhanger with serious tension between the two main characters does make me want to read more, but I will proceed with the rest of this series with caution. I give this book 3 stars because to me it was only okay. I will continue with the rest of this series, but not necessarily as soon as the books come out.

I was given a free copy in exchange for an honest review.
