5. FULL REVIEW EXCLUSIVE DELETED SCENE NOW POSTED When will I ever be free from this sickness When will love stop feeling like a curse It doesn t happen very often that a book makes my mind spin in such a way that it takes me weeks to collect my thoughts, rein in all my initial reactions, and get over my inherent reflex to just scream at it Because this book was just whoa And while a taboo scenario such as this one almost always makes my skin quiver from the forbidden allure of it all, Lucky and Be [...]

6. My initial reaction after I finished reading this was, I can t even rate this right now because I m so upset I need a fucking happy ending and this book didn t give me that It gave me some half assed shit that actually left me than upset, I was half in angry tears.The taboo theme was what drew me in because they say God punishes lovers by reincarnating them as close family relations usually siblings I liked seeing the tension between the two characters and watching them struggle to deal with th [...]

10. WOW Another passionate, loving and emotional book from Mara White I had the great pleasure of reading an early copy of Maldeas and I haven t stopped thinking about it.Heed the warnings on this one because Maldeas is unlike amy book I ve read Bel n and Luciano are star crossed lovers, fiercely in love but forced to deny their true feelings for each other Like Mara s other books, I felt anxious, emotional, distraught and fascinated by these two characters and their tumultuous journey The writing i [...]

11. 4 estrelas Uma coisa que n o se pode negar a autora foi corajosa Pode at ter algu m que tenha imaginado esse final, mas meio que duvido Foi muito arriscado e muito inesperado Acho que pra mim o impacto foi diferente pois esses dias fiquei sabendo que ia ter o livro 2 Se precisa Hum Como leitora que ficou presa na hist ria, eu gostaria de ler sim Mas se realmente precisava N o sei Acho que como livro nico ficaria sempre aquela pulga atr s da orelha O livro era pra ser nico, mas agora 2 anos depoi [...]

12. Maldeas by Mara White is the first book in the series Maldeas This is the story of Lucky and Belen This book starts at the beginning of their lives and keeps moving through their years so show case how they became to have these feeling for each other and how they felt along the way This book comes with allot of emotions that does take you on a roller coaster ride This does end with what I would call a somewhat cliffhanger that sets you up for the next book My honest review is for a special copy [...]

13. A match made in hellI have very mixed feelings about this book On one hand I salute the author for being able to cause the extreme emotional fall out I m currently experiencing I can honestly say that there are only a handful of books that I ve read that fall into this category I don t regret reading them because they touched my heart and have stayed with me in spite of the hundreds of books I ve read since It s one of those books that torture you by holding your mind hostage and refusing to let [...]

14. First of all, I need to clarify something My low rating doesn t concern the taboo themes of this book the love between two cousins, the homosexual encounters or the m nage relations So, I have none of those issues with this book personally.What I liked in this book was that the story flaws smoothly and the writing is rich and polished Also, I liked the dual POV.What I do have an issue with is the frivolous plot and the childish dialogues and lines The plot wasn t interesting and the sex scenes w [...]

15. An unconventional love story which is probably one of the most beautifully written of its kind, Maldeas by Mara White was an initially uncomfortable reading journey for me, yet I must tell you that it became AMAZING as I progressed I have read several taboos in my life but nothing about an H and h who really are introduced as blood related I knew what I signed up for when I read the blurb on the ARC form I knew what I was reading was about first degree cousins, but what I wasn t ready for was th [...]

17. 4.5 STARSBeautifully heartbreaking and emotionally taxing, Mara White creates such an eye opening, boundary pushing, taboo love story with Maldeas This story had me in knots, lovesick right along with these characters, struggling between rooting for something so wrong, and rebelling against it all at once This isn t a story that s easy to digest, and in spite of that, or maybe because of it, I couldn t put it down This isn t the kind of love story we re supposed to love It s a haunting story abo [...]

18. 3.5 Stars My heart is racing, my breath coming short, my pulse beating so hard it feels like it might leap out of my skin I didn t know kissing could be like that No, I didn t know kissing him could be like jumping off into outer space and discovering a whole new universe Before reading this book I was going through a three week long book funk No amount of reading new books helped my case That is until Maldeas Reading the blurb intrigued me enough to one click, but reading the first chapter had [...]

19. I am dying and nothing can help me any Maybe lucky can I am not going to go into details about this book because i went in blind and I highly suggest doing the same Just a warning, this book is not flowers and rainbows This is not meant to make you happy This is a greatly tabooed book So if any of these is a deal breaker please look for another book.Mara White is a freaking GENIUS I don t know how to process this book and frankly I don t think I want to because I will have a breakdown This book [...]

20. When I went into Maldeas, I was nervous as hell I did not think I could handle THIS kind of taboo, and I LOVE taboo But, Mara White had me cheering for these unLUCKY lovers see what I did there by, like, 5% Lucky and Bel n know that they re not SUPPOSED to want each other, but they do They can t help it They ve tried fighting it for years Nothing about their story feels yucky It s heart breaking, and I felt physical pain for them How do you come to terms with loving the one person that you can t [...]

21. Something about this book immediately called to me I m not sure which sucked me in first its name, Maldeas Lovesick , its stunning cover, or its jaw dropping blurb Regardless, I m just happy it was than a book with a beautiful cover and a read me now synopsis because it truly is so much that, the real treasure is the story of Bel n and Luciano I am not sure if I should be praising the author for writing such a phenomenal story, her bravery for publishing something so wrong and so forbidden, or [...]

22. 4.5 Lovesick StarsIf ever there were a perfect definition or example of being lovesick , Maldeas is it In all the books I ve read and it s been a lot , I ve always had this generic idea of what one looks like and acts like when they re lovesick It s a word that s used to describe puppy love, overzealous teenagers and wounded alpha males, but Mara White takes the term to the extreme and does it brilliantly.I love dark and gritty and kinky and extreme and taboo in regards to sexual deviance in boo [...]

23. Wtf did I just read I don t know if I ever felt this conflicted about a book I knew it was a taboobut this really messed up my head This is really going against my beliefs, I would really judge those two in reality But I m also cheering for them This is so fucked up But this is what we do to one another We re both each other s poison, but we re also each other s only antidote Their love is sickness, they re lovesick The real sickness I m kicking is her in my system No rehab can cure me of that p [...]

24. This review is also posted on my blog, The Scarlet SirenAs a reader, my very favorite books challenge me They make me question what I know, what I believe, and they make me FEEL Mara White hit all of these points for me.Before this book, I was unfamiliar with Mara s work My girl Joanne from Have Book Will Read told me she was reading Maldeas, and after I looked it up, I knew that I had to read it I first downloaded the sample, and I one clicked as soon as I finished it I proceeded to check out o [...]

25. I was very excited about this book It seemed like such a promising taboo, dark love story When I started it I was pleasantly surprised because the author took us back to the past We first meet Luciano and Belen when they are small children They are cousins and the grew up together Things change when they start growing up They start noticing each other and Belen cannot stop thinking about her cousin Twisted emoptions and jealousy spring throughout their teenage years but Luciano is determined not [...]

27. I had to take some time to process my thoughts after getting to the end of this book I m still processing them In an amazing way I know a lot of people will read the blurb or see the warning and immediately turn awayI however, saw it and immediately said I ve got to read this book and I m beyond happy that I did I love books that test and tease the line of right and wrong, the kind that makes you know you re not supposed to be okay with it, but you just can t help it So many times these kinds of [...]

28. Well well I guess I never thought I would want to read a book like this But it was a recommendation and also a taboo that I have never read The book was written very well that it took a couple hours to read The flow, the sexuality, the chemistry was amazing I took one star away because of the Fu ed up ending.This story is about Belen and Lucky they are 1st cousins and the find themselves attracted to each other The author wrote this book in a loving way Not a sick way that you are just baffled b [...]

29. I finished this book two days ago and I still can t get it out of my head Maldeas was one of the most emotional, heartbreaking and tragic love stories I ve ever read Lucky and Bel n are soul mates, but they are also from the same family I don t consider it taboo because I felt that even though they were cousins, they were born for each other They fought against the feelings they knew they shouldn t have but their love is pure, raw, and unconditional There aren t enough seconds in this lifetime f [...]

OH MY HEART.This book This book right here THIS is why I love reading, why I started blogging When you find an author that is new to you and you devour every word on those pages, you just want to shout it from the rooftops Until today, I d never read a Mara White book, but you can be damn sure I ll have read at least one of her books by the end of this week.The simple blurb intirgued me, the prologue hooked me, and from there onwards I couldn t put it down I know there are lots of books that yo [...]
