Since Forever Ago

What It's About!
Fresh off the heels of a devastating breakup, Riley Benson is a mess. But with her ingenious plan to become a ball-busting heartbreaker herself, she’s pretty sure she’ll survive. After all, what better way is there to get revenge than to move on?
Riley’s determined to become the perfect bachelorette—she’s going to drink like a bro, belch like a beast and swear so much that she’ll make even the most seasoned sailors blush. After all, those are the qualities that every guy’s secretly looking for…. aren’t they?
Max Fletcher is in love with the girl who gave him chicken pox and his first broken leg. When his best friend seems to finally be out of the picture, he can’t help but want to keep Riley all to himself. And, after coaching her with the very best of the very worst love advice, it seems as if he might actually get what he's wanted after all those years. But just as the two come to the realization that they're actually kind of perfect for each other, along comes a secret that threatens to tear them apart.

My Thoughts!
This book was sent to me through Net Galley in turn for an honest review.
Where to begin? Riley...Riley...Riley. It is all about her this whole book isn't it? Yes it was horrible that her boyfriend cheated on her. I sympathize, but the girl is consumed with herself. The Entire Book! She ends up sleeping with her best friend...then sneaks out. Then tests a relationship with him, then goes back to the same douche guy that cheated on her. In my opinion I don't think she deserved Max. Her and Noah deserved each other. Max was thoughtful and loved her just the way she was. Riley was constantly complaining. Whiny. Also I'm not a prude, but the amount of cursing in the book was insane. It dumbed the characters down, in my opinion. I just didn't like it. It wasn't for me.
