no tienen idea de cómo me destroza el pov masculino, ojalá estos hombres fueran reales

I'm so annoyed with this book. I was really looking forward to it. There's not a lot of romance books from a guys POV and this was especially awesome because it was from a character already known and loved, but it still fails really badly. You ARE going to like this book if: - You like bad boys and their bad boy ways. - It's been a while seen you read its predecessor. Why I was so disappointed with it - I knew it was the same book just from Travis POV and there were a few new scenes, but if you're going to write the same scenes at least have the decency to change the words. I mean we knew the dialogue was going to stay the same, but about 75% of Travis' narration is basically the same as Abby, the same words are used and everything! - Because I expected this book to stand by itself, that someone who had not read the first one could read it as easily and although it is possible it would be very confusing as some scenes are skipped in their entirety, scenes which Travis participated in, but where just not there and it wasn't explained unless you read the first one. What I liked: - The new scenes which were few but were still there and were very good and gave us a bit more insight about Travis. Overall it was a good read and as I said before especially if its been a while since you read the last one. Otherwise it would make a very dull read and you will wish for it to end.

I just absolutely love Travis and Abby! I loved being able to see the side of the story I always wondered about since Redding beautiful distaste, especially the brotherly bond after thanksgiving. The added short story at the end was a huge plus, though I do wish it was longer but still happy to have had it.

Original review can be found here: http://footprintsofthefancyfree.wordp... After reading Beautiful Disaster, I have been dying to read the sequel, but just hadn’t gotten around to it. Well I finally found the time and I, again, couldn’t put it down. I am pretty sure that I actually liked this book more than the first. Reading the story from Travis’s point of view was so refreshing. His thoughts were hilarious and I constantly found myself laughing out loud or smirking. This new fad of books written from the “other” point of view is fantastic. One of the reasons I liked this specific one so much is that it filled in a lot of the gaps. It gets you thinking about what was going on while Abby was off doing her thing and I feel as if it explained a lot of Travis’s impulsiveness. Again, I know the book is controversial, because of Travis’s bad boy status. Yes I agree he was a little over the top and possessive, but it still made for a great story. I felt that actually a lot of his creepy-ness could be better understood by listening to his thought process. Last, but not least, I absolutely adored the epilogue! Best ending I have read in a long time. It was just what I needed to end their romance/relationship on a good note. No matter what anyone says, this book was extremely entertaining and I am definitely looking forward to reading the next book in the series.

After reading Beautiful Disaster, it was kind of nice to hear Travis' side of the story. I like the way the author wrote these books, although there were some subtle differences in their stories. Definitely would recommend.

This is my favorite book told from the other main characters POV. I’ve read this before and this definitely won’t be the last time I read it, it’s perfect for when I’m waiting for my library books to be ready

Not as good as Beautiful Disaster, but I did like the story though the point of view of Travis. However, Travis was a whiny, clingy, messed up bastard half the time. I just wanted to slap the crap out of him every time he was whining over Abby or when he was punching someone, breaking something or fighting with anybody. Christ, he's an emotional wreck who needs counseling. And Abby needs a slap upside the head for putting up with Travis and all of his shit.

This series is so friggin good. Similar to After by Anna Todd, but I feel it's got juicier twists!

When I read Beautiful Disaster, I was amazed at how much I liked that book. I don't generally like characters like Travis and yet I couldn't help but fall for his character. That's why when Walking Disaster came out, I knew I was going to have to get it. I'm glad I did. The author wrote this book extremely well. What I loved: This book didn't dwell on what we already knew. Travis's side of the story is a lot different than Abby's. The epilogue and the fact that there was one. Just the fact that we were able to get inside Travis's head. I highly recommend this to loves of the NA genre, those who loved Beautiful Disaster, and those who love a good book.

*sigh* Travis Maddox is amazing. I fell in love with him all over in this book. I really enjoyed reading their love story from his eyes.

More of my reviews at Secrets of Lost Words. Rating: D+ I really liked Beautiful Disaster and I wanted to read this one to see how it was from Travis's point of view. I was a bit bored with this one as it is basically telling the same story and there wasn't anything new or relatively interesting. I felt like Travis and Abby's voices were nearly the same and sometimes I forget that this is Travis talking, not Abby. This one is quite a disappointment and I wouldn't recommend someone reading this. It's basically the same. I couldn't tell much of a difference between Travis and Abby. There were a scene or two where Abby wasn't there but it wasn't really worth it reading this. The prologue in this one is definitely something you need to read though :3

This book was shit omg. I love Travis. Abby is still a cunt. Why did you make me read this Olivia. I have to admit it was exactly what I needed to get out of my reading slump but damn.

Edit 2: Okay I seem to constantly change my mind about these books. I'm deleting them from my favorites and I do think they are not going back there any time soon. As entertaining as they are, they are filled with just too much emotional abuse and since I read them I matured a bit (I guess) and these things just started bothering me too much. I'm changing my rating as well. It's 3 stars now, but not because I thought it was okay, but because I really just don't know how to rate them. Edit 1: As some time passed from reading both of the books in this series, I realized that it actually grew on me. A lot. My love-hate relationship with it turned to the love side a bit more and I just have to put it in my favorites. I have to. A lot of people say that this 'sequel' is like reading a story again for the first time. I honestly didn't find this book like that, but it is nice seeing the other perspective as well. So, let me really start this review with a pro and contra list. Pro: 1. I enjoyed the POV change so much! I adored Travis here a lot more than in the first book because now I actually got to understand (some of ...i will talk a bit more about this in the contra part) his actions and feelings. 2. The emotions were really well portrayed and I could connect with what he felt quite good (which I honestly can't say about Abby in Beautiful Disaster). 3. Sheplay was a great character to read about. Actually, he was the most realistic character in the whole book if you ask me. And he was hilarious in some scenes. 4. The character development Travis goes trough 5. The extra scenes were really nice (except for the epilogue) 6. The Maddox family (which makes me want to get my hands on the Maddox brothers books) 7. There was no Rolling Stones sing along. Contra: 1. Abby. OH MY GOD. How I hated her. In the first book it was more like: And now? She was such a bitch with a capital B! I honestly couldn't understand his feelings towards her. Why dude?! Whyyyyyyyyy?! 2. Even though I understood most of Travis's actions and emotions, some parts were completely crazy and ununderstandable. Like the firs time she left? The guy wrecked a stereo! And the door! And the whole damn room! Seriously man, why did you do it? That was something a mad man would do. And a few other times I just couldn't get what would make him do something like that. 3.The fire scene. This is what ruined the book for me. No. Wait. Both of the books. I just couldn't swallow it. The perfect ending for the story would have been the moment they officially got back together. In that case I honestly think this book could go in my favourite shelf, because I was really hooked to read it from the moment I picked it up. But the experience of reading the fire scene FOR THE SECOND TIME pretty much made me miserable. 4. The epilogue...I just..I.. I mean...Why would... I totally didn't get it. Travis is...a killer now? And he was like... hiding stuff from her? I will just pretend that wasn't part of the book. So yeah. That's it.

I only enjoyed the Prologue and Epilogue.

I made a big mistake...and my rating reflects it. Do not read "Beautiful Disaster" and "Walking Disaster" back-to-back. Why? Because I have literally just read the same book twice, the only difference being who was narrating. It took FOREVER to finish....mainly because I had to force myself to continue. No fun when you not only know EVERY aspect of the storyline, but it's still fresh in your mind. Maybe if I had let months go by between books I would feel differently. But I didn't. "Walking Disaster" was written from Travis' POV. I was excited about this. I drooled over Travis in the first book.....but not in this one! While from Abby's perspective, Travis appeared the ultimate alpha-male, in this book, he appeared anything but. When he's not punching something, he's crying. Or drinking. Or stalking. It just doesn't appear sweet this time round. You can see the utter craziness in his head and it's very unbecoming. None of his decisions make sense. His reasons are lacking. Common sense missing. The only new material in "Walking Disaster", is a short epilogue. Cheesy and far-fetched, I didn't find it in keeping with the tone of the book. If you want to read this book, I'd recommend saving your money and getting it from your local library. If you're a huge Travis fan, I'd recommend skipping this book altogether.

Ese final... MUCHOS FEELS

LOVE IT !!

J'ai bien aimé le point de vue de Travis, cela permet de comprendre beaucoup de choses qui m'étaient restées flou dans la tome 1 (point de vue d'Abby). Par contre, je pense qu'il n'était pas nécessaire de retracer toute l'histoire. L'auteure a réécrit des passages entiers qui étaient déjà présents dans le tome 1, sans ajouter de vrai raisonnement qui justifieraient cette lourdeur. Heureusement, l'épilogue apporte un peu de nouveauté.

The epilogue made me crazy! I can't believe that Abby & Travis got a *bleep spoiler bleep spoiler*. And Mick is... SHOOT HIM SHOOT HIM! LMAO
