This is one of those books that I've heard a lot fantastic things about. So many that it made me incredibly nervous to read it. I've heard that it's THE book in the New Adult genre and that Lucas is the ultimate book boyfriend. So what did I do? I bought it then put it on the shelf never to think of again. Until a few months ago when I got given an audiobook copy from a friend. 
 For the past month, I've been listening to Jacqueline and Lucas' story one hour at a time whilst running around my neighbourhood. And I can see what all the fuss is about. Tammara Webber wrote a story with characters who have a lot of depth to them. They're flawed and interesting and for the most part entirely believable. I wasn't sure I was going to like Jacqueline at the start. She's a little mopey and heartbroken but there's so much more to her than her first impression. She's brave and intelligent and very hard-working. She's not one of those people who jump to conclusions and blame you for what's going on inside their own heads but she does give people the benefit of doubt. Her relations with her friends are real and relatable and the e-banter between her and Landon is rather entertaining. Lucas is the perfect kind of bad boy and I loved the way he treated Jacqueline however I didn't love him as much as I expected to. 
 This is a book with some fairly heavy themes - abuse, victims, rape and reputation - but I thought they were dealt with beautifully. I liked that it didn't go the stereotypical route - Jacqueline is no helpless heroine but she's an everyday woman. Abuse is something that can happen to anyone - and I admired her for how she dealt with the aftermath. She's stronger than I first thought and manages to fight back - not just in a physical way but equips herself with the skills necessary to not be put in the same position again. Girl power! :D 
 Easy is a book I'm so glad that I actually decided to read! It's got realistic characters, a lot of romance and great storyline about female empowerment. I'm definitely going to read more books by Tammara Webber.
