LEÍ ARSEN .

Y aquí lo que pienso










Que porquería de libro .

La manera en que elijo escribir esta reseña es lo que más me irritó de la novela . ¿Desde cuando las pausas eternas son buena escritura? ¿Desde cuando las oraciones que no llevan a ningún lado lo son ?

Odié Arsen . Odié la trama . Odié a su protagonista . Odié al muchachito "rebelde" de siempre . Odié todo , de principio a fin y para poder terminarlo sin putear constantemente la pantalla , tuve que saltear varias páginas .

Las escenas de sexo siguen al pie de la letra la moda erótica de los últimos dos años : es decir , la sumisión de la mujer y la dominación del hombre ; hecho que no me molestaría si no fuesen EXACTAMENTE iguales todas ... ¿No se les ocurre nada nuevo???

La historia de engaño no me atrapó en absoluto y -acá va de nuevo porque soy repetitiva como Mia Asher - es lo de siempre sin nada del otro mundo : la mujer que enagaña al marido porque es demasiado perfecto y ella , que es imperfecta , no puede soportarlo . Ergo (si , dije Ergo , igual que Joey T.) ,en vez de afrontar el problema o distraerse con algo que no dañe a nadie (como , no sé , anotarse en el gimnasio , buscarse una puta ideología que la apasione , empezar clases de artesanía o aprender a usar el Microsoft Excel ) , en vez de elegir no lastimar a nadie y ser honesta e ir a terapia con Gabriel Byrne o la doctora Lovenstein (COMO SEA) , ella decide acostarse con un "bad boy" (si , siempre son los chicos malos los que están ahí , listos para tentar a las mujeres indefensas) .

Y ahí se "desencadena" la nada .

Y sólo eso

El erotismo

Ella

Ser sexual

Y no puede

No puede

No puede

No puede

Igual que yo

Que entre

Buenas autoras

y

Las malas

Que me tientan

Me dejo llevar

Y elijo

Perturbarme

Y así

Así no terminamos

Y leemos

Mierda

Porque

Es barata

Y FÁCIL .

4.5 Ultra Steamy
This riveting and gut-wrenching novel is impossible to put down. It’s tragic, maddening, tantalizing and exhilarating.

The two male protagonists, Ben and Arsen are pure carnal confections. Both characters are strikingly different types of heroes yet equally viable and compelling love interests.

Ben is the dream husband: tall, dark, remarkably handsome and madly in love with his gorgeous wife, Cathy. Ben dotes on and savors Cathy. She is the air he breathes. He worships and show more devours her body and soul. He would do anything for her. Their love is substantial, deep and true.

But, unfortunate circumstances leave Cathy and Ben at a loss. Despair drives Cathy to retreat and disconnect from lovely, perfect Ben. Sad and numb, Cathy’s picture perfect life feels gray and lifeless until she meets Arsen.

Arsen is all fire and fantasy, sunny beauty and raw sexuality. When Cathy eventually gives in to her blinding desires and need for Arsen, he is right there, deliciously wicked and ready to take her. With ferocity and vigor, Arsen commands and possesses her fully. For Cathy, the torrid affair is an intoxicating outlet and overpowering addiction. For Arsen, Cathy becomes his everything.

ARSEN is filled with well described stolen moments between ravenous lovers. The sex is white hot electrification: Innocent, affectionate, playful and loving. Passionate, raw and frenzied. Hypnotic and forbidden. Lyrical and heartbreaking. Angry and punishing.

Be warned, ARSEN is not a frothy feel-good romance. It’s an exhaustive emotional roller coaster filled with delirious highs and devastating lows. You have to be prepared for the punches. Also, if you dislike books with prominent infidelity, this story isn’t for you. No matter how crazy hot and titillating the sex is, you’ll never get past the cheating.

For me, I love a good love triangle, and this one is epic. I LOVED this book. ARSEN gripped me from the first page and left me overheated and shaken.

This book left me with the biggest book hangover ever. I feel gutted and empty.

The emotions in Arsen are real and raw. With each page I turned, I felt more and more.

The Author did a fabulous job writing so the reader felt like they were living the lives of the characters. I honestly can't express how much I loved this book...



Cathy has it all, or so everyone thinks she has it all... She has a nice house, a perfect husband, and a dream job but something is missing. After experiencing multiple show more miscarriages she wants to be forget about that life and move on with new things. Arsen comes into the picture like a wildfire. He is hot, cocky, and Cathy is tempted. She tries to stay loyal, but eventually she gives in. Struggling with her feelings for two men she learns that she could risk losing both.



This book was just fabulous. It well written & provoked tons of thought. There was a lesson within it as well. About love and how things may seem better at first, but sooner or later you will regret and want what you once had. It makes you realize that lies flow out easily, but eventually you will get tangled up in them.



I truly highly recommend this book.

Wow, this book got to me like no other. Sebastian had a perfect life, the love of his life was everything to him, but tragedy strike and everything goes away, he can’t seem to find a way to move forward. Then we have Valentina, who is struggling with her marriage, she is now trying to overcome what happened and work to get it fixed, but not all things can be as easy as to just say it. She is hurting inside and even though she loved her husband something went wrong and now she needs to face show more her own life.

They meet under very interesting circumstances in Paris, while Valentina is trying to get the final grab of her marriage and Sebastian is at the gallery, they kiss and sparks fly, the ignition is turned on and none of them can deny it. She needs to make a choice; Sebastian needs to find a way to love again. Their worlds collide and this story will show you more than romance, more than chemistry. This story will show you what real life is, how two different circumstances, yet the same devastation within the individuals will make you heart ache, but their paths to overcome everything you will make you think about your own life, will make you think and appreciate what you have and that life might not always be sweet, but learning to live again afterwards is not easy but worth it. One of my top reads for 2017 so far. Mia Asher has outdone herself with this book.
