Against All Odds by Angie McKeon

★★★

At the urge to not be a giant spoiley spoiler, I am going to post the most CRYPTIC book review ever. So here are my "things" about books that you need to know: 

• I hate cheaters. I hate HATE HATE reading about married people who cheat and make excuses for their behavior and are okay with that. Sometimes I can deal with it in stories if it is relevant to the story and it makes the storyline more interesting or makes the world a better place. Most of the time, it just makes me all twitchy. 
• I'm not the biggest fan of the love triangle angle. 
• For the love of all things holy, PICK. Don't string people along. 

I don't even know how to describe how I feel after finishing Against All Odds. I had a love hate relationship with Cooper and Kylie seemed to be a really hot mess. I absolutely ADORED Grayson. 

The basis of the story is a married coupling, dealing with a loss in nontraditional ways, each turning away from each other to cope with their grief. Regardless, parts of the story felt unbelievable and I hope there are not people in this world who are so cavalier with other people's feelings; however, I know that there are. 

The writing of the story was honestly wonderful but the plot kind of nonexistent and whimsical. I just honestly hated the main characters and thought they both needed to go away forever and leave the rest of the world alone. 

Who would I recommend this book to? Someone feeling angsty and needs a reason for their angst. Someone who got the book for free and has absolutely nothing better to read.  Someone who enjoys love triangles or nontraditional relationships explored.
