I had many fellow book-lovers recommend Roar , so I saved it for a relaxing road-trip, anticipating an enjoyable read. And that is what I got... for the most part. First, this book is definitely a romance. It hits you over the head with intense physical emotions in the first few pages and it never leaves. Whether it's a villain or a random soldier she vaguely recognizes, Aurora (or Roar), can sense the myriad of men who are attracted to her. Apparently none of them are unattractive or boorish, it just so happens that every man she meets wants something more from her. I found this a bit ridiculous. The attraction that supposedly every man has for her seems forced and makes her less sincere. I don't care how attractive you are supposed to be, most girls I know, models and nerds alike, are more likely to assume someone isn't attracted to them than is. It's a sad truth, but we aren't built like that. Also, she does not have the fiercely confident and experience...
