the c*ck down the block by amy award — a review
WHAT A BOOK! I MEAN WHAT A BOOK!!
And a moment for the cover too. *GORGEOUS*
This book has all the fun, wit, love and laughs. You better believe me when I tell you that this is probably one of the most fun books I have ever read.
Chris is the man of any girl’s dream. He is a footballer who has been in love with his childhood friend for TEN years. He is smart, family-oriented, and only has eyes for her. While I loved him, the one who really stood out for me was Trixie — a curvy girl who is the most beautiful inside out. She has my heart! She is smart, she is witty, she is confident, she is THE QUEEN.
The things I really loved in this book (even though I loved every single bit of it):
the family dynamics — Chris has six brothers and a sister. Their parents have embodied such beautiful values in them and I was really touched by the way all of them support each other.
Trixie’s confidence and wit… omg I AM A FAN.
How the author wrote about body positivity, bullies, online trolling, I mean… Amy Award NAILED IT.
Chris and Trixie’s chemistry and those spicy scenes *ahem* *ahem*
All the side characters are absolutely perfect. (Especially Trixie’s mum)
The names of the chapters are so fun
The star of the show, LUKE SKYCOCKER (aka the rooster) and his chicks.
Amy Award has a very different way of writing, but it’s different in a very fun way. The words, the vibes, the scenes — everything is so breezy and witty while still including some sensitive topics, too. She covered all of them so beautifully.
I guess I can’t even describe how good it is; you have to read it. YOU. HAVE. GOT. TO.
rating - 5/5
