The Girl On The Half Shell The Half Shell Series Volume 1 Susan Ward 9780615975924 Books

Please don't get me wrong, I liked the book and actually went to bed last night wanting to find out how the story would go on, but this book was emotionally draining, sometimes exasperating and sometimes simply frustating for me....
I love to read and I like books were there is a emotional rollercoaster romance,a hot and cold relationship, the ocasional I want to slap the lights out of you character. It makes reading fun and kind of carries you to parallel fantasy world, where your own personal drama is nothing compared to the one you are reading... but Chrissie and Alan's tormented romance was overwhelming and just plain wrong!
I mean I get that the characters where emotionally scar and that is the beauty of the story was that they would rescue each other, I love a sexy guys who need to be rescue don't get me wrong, but sometimes Alan was a rude, narcissistic, egocentric excuse for a human being that just made me want to hate and slap him hard! And with Chrissie, talk about very low self-esteem and no self respect! I mean a guy does half the stupid thing Alan did to her and no matter how much I love that guy or who the hell he is, I am out of there as fast as a bat out of hell!
Anyway, what I had most trouble with the story was that it felt we went forward three steps, and Alan finally is opening up, realizing he is a human being after all, and Chrissie is still broken down but on her way and wham! they fight, they scream, insult and screw each other and we are back at square one over and over all though out the story.
There's a song from Katy Perry that I think was written specially for this couple and that's I'll keep thinking as I finally finished reading this book today........
There's part two and three coming up, but I just don't know right know if Alan deserves my time of day.....

The Girl On The Half Shell The Half Shell Series Volume 1 Susan Ward 9780615975924 Books Reviews


This book is shelved as Contemporary Romance but it’s New Adult. It feels real, like it could happen, even though it is part fantasy. Here’s the fantasy - a beautiful rock star falls in love with an ordinary girl and is the only one who can see the pain inside her. That’s good New Adult, IMO. And okay, so the heroine, Chrissie, is not ordinary like me. Her father is a rock icon and she grew up wealthy in Santa Barbara. But she feels ordinary compared to the people who populate her life, rock stars, mean girls, a dare-devil best friend whose beauty stops traffic. The story is told from Chrissie’s point of view and it is her conflicted narration that makes the romance so compelling. Despite having all the accoutrements of a glamorous life, Chrissie is real. And sad. And teetering on the edge of adulthood, full of raw emotion. She longs for intimacy and yet, she is terrified it will unleash her pain. Which it does. When she cries in the bathroom, after losing her virginity, I had a feeling of, “But wait, that happened to me." How did the writer of the story know? How many girls have done that? The Girl on the Half Shell captures the ache and the intensity of first love, and treats serious subject matter, such as self-mutilation and addiction, with searing honesty. I found it deeply engrossing and affecting and I keep thinking about the characters. They were my friends. And I miss them. And look forward to the sequel.
When I started reading this story I didn't like Chrissie, the central character, very much at all. She came off as a whiney rich bitch, someone who had been given much and appreciated little. Luckily I didn't give up on the story.

As I read on, I found the story of a damaged child who had lost two family members while quite young. She meets and falls in love with a rock and roll superstar but finds that he is just as damaged as she.

This is a well-written page turner. I stayed up way too late each night to find out if Chrissie and Alan could work through their issues and find lasting love.
So much in this book, angst, love, anger, sadness, and steamy sex scenes!! This story is about 'Chrissie Parker, daughter of famous guitarist in rock band... Chrissie has had a hard upbringing and even more tragedy when Chrissie is dealing with her brother dies from a drug overdose ...
This has some heartbreaking movement then Chrissie meets a guy that is staying at her house over the holidays, Alan manzone.. He is several years older than Chrissie - he is pretty messed up as well... But these two seem to make things "look like they could be so perfect together... But, with that ending! Ugh- such a cliffy!!! I want them to get a "HEA!" But maybe wrong time? Dang.. I want them together but healthy!! Oh this darn book!!!
Absolutely recommend !!!!
I really did like this book and found myself wanting to know what happens to Chrissie and Alan. The only reason I am not continuing on with the series is due to both of the characters behaviors. This book was emotionally draining and frustrating. I have a feeling that the other 3 books in the series will be a constant battle of back and forth. (Based on reviews of the other books, I may not even get an ending for the characters.) The story line was filled with details but the author threw out a detail about Alan and I felt it was a pretty major detail about why he is the way he is. The author just glossed over it and neither characters gave it another thought. The way both Chrissie and Alan act had me getting angry with them more than I wanted too. They both need to grow up a little bit. Overall, I did enjoy the story but it was a major battle between my own emotions and the characters emotions and actions.
Please don't get me wrong, I liked the book and actually went to bed last night wanting to find out how the story would go on, but this book was emotionally draining, sometimes exasperating and sometimes simply frustating for me....
