Empire State Series by Louise Bay

I found this new book in Goodreads, got 3 stars rated so i decided to read the first series called "A Week in New York". I was attracted by it synopsis
At first, the synopsis really like really legit like so much fun and. here is the synopsis by the way:
"Anna Kirby is sick of dating. She's tired of heartbreak. Despite being smart, sexy, and funny, she's a magnet for men who don't deserve her.
A week's vacation in New York is the ultimate distraction from her most recent break-up, as well as a great place to meet a stranger and have some summer fun. But to protect her still-bruised heart, fun comes with rules. There will be no sharing stories, no swapping numbers, and no real names. Just one night of uncomplicated fun.
Super-successful serial seducer Ethan Scott has some rules of his own. He doesn't date, he doesn't stay the night, and he doesn't make any promises.
It should be a match made in heaven. But rules are made to be broken.
A Week in New York is the first in a series of three novellas.
***Not suitable for younger readers due to sexual content and language.***"
I DO notice ada note gitu dibawah sinopsisnya "Not suitable for younger readers due to sexual content and language" i was thinking "Ah paling juga kaya Fifty Shades not so disturbing *for me"
the synopsis sounds fun right??? but AFTER i read it, I hate it. I hate this book and their Trilogy.
So the story is all about a woman lagi liburan ke New York dan ga sengaja ketemu sama Ethan, and they r fallin in love. Book one has MAJOR cliffhanger, it was hung when Anna back to London and Ethan in New York. despite how cheesy it is I NEED to read the second book to know whats going to happen next.
buku kedua judulnya Autumn in London Same old stories ugh tooooo much sex scene like if you open any page there WILL be a sex scene. ugh somehow its disturbing for me. disini diceritain they met again in London. Ethan has to go to London for work. blablablabla.... blablabla... and finally Ethan has to go back to NY and there goes the 3rd book. its boring tho. for me.
Buku ketiga judulnya New Year in Manhattan *MAJOR SPOILER they get married eventually.
Here are the list why i hate this series.
1. Unreal
Pas gue baca pertamanya cuma dijelasin sekitar 5-7 halaman tentang latar belakang si Anna selanjutnya she and her bestfriend fly to New York dan pada malam pertama mereka di NY Anna (it bothers me her name is Anna cause it always remain me of Anastasia Steel) ketemu sama Ethan. AND at that night they have sex. like WHAT? u sure? seems unreal for me tho! really! I love books, i love novels, i love romance books BUT books that doesn't seem unreal kaya itu ngurangun nilai buku itu jadi 2/10 ewh.
2. TMS!!!
The second thing i hate about this book is there is TOO MUCH SEX SCENE! LIKE TOO MUCH! with only 110-ish pages udah ngalahin Fifty Shades 1/2 buku doang! BANYAK BANGET SHIZZ! i should have take the warning seriously ugh!
3. TOO SHORT!
I HATE SHORT STORIES! I prefer book that has 280ish or more *the more the merrier* pages. Buku ini ceritanya terlalu pendek no further details, i like books that explain every detail cause it completes our imagination about that book and the character in it. :(((( total 3 buku cuma 300-ish halaman. kalau gue bandingin lagi sama Fifty Shades malah jilid 1 nya aja udah 300-ish halaman :((((
Verdict: 6/10
