Aggro

Holy Cow you guys! Aggro was PHENOMENAL! Like top reads of 2020, phenomenal! I went into this book expecting something totally different than what I got, but I wasnt disappointed by this fact in.any.way. This book is so powerful it will grab a hold of you and embed itself so deeply into your mind, heart and soul it will consume you until you have devoured every single word.

Aggro is the story of Breeze, Chase and Kai, three teens bound by grief over the death of Violet. Violet was Breezes best friend, twin sister to Chases and in a toxic relationship with Kai. This is a story of how the three of them deal with this tragic loss, as not only individuals but together. My heart felt like it was in a vice over and over. Just the amazing writing of CLJ and CG was so vivid and with such clear attention to detail I had to keep reminding myself ( you are not there, you dont really know these people Irl) because I was a mess yall. Seriously, hot mess express!
They set out on a quest desperate for answers. Three teens plagued by guilt, hurt, anger, and survivor’s guilt. They are all working to put the pieces together to find out what happened the night of Violets violent death and the secrets she had been keeping from everyone that led up to her death. But will they be able to handle the truth when they get it?

Now, if you are like me, a bit of a cover ho, you assume by the amazing cover that we are getting a story from a Heros POV. However that isnt how this goes down at all. It is even better. This amazing story takes place in a picturesque beach island town. We get POVs from Breeze, Chase and Kai and I love this so much because each one is struggling in a different way to come to terms with what has happened. To have the story told in their voice as they are experiencing the different emotions is so emotional and powerful, it just takes the story to another level of awesome, and Im so happy the authors did it this way. These three and their constant struggle with wondering who could have committed this crime and maybe at times even wonder about each other.
What I love is that no matter how many times you think you might have figured whats going on or whats gonna happen next CoraLee and Carrie pull the rug right out from under you.

I loved all of these characters. Breeze was the sweet wallflower that was always the silent shadow behind her outgoing best friend, Violet. She assumed she was never seen but that is far from the truth. For the longest time she had a crush on Chase but sister code prevented her from ever making a move.
Chase was hot, he was also a getaround girl hopper. He loved his sister and he loved Breeze. It seemed like he loved her like a sister but who knows maybe it could have been more at one time?
Then you have Kai, the one they call an Aggro, which was an aggressive surfer, taking chances most of us wouldnt. He was gorgeous and tattooed, but when he was with Violet they were all wrong for each other. They were the very definition of toxicity. But when he looked at Breeze. Well that was a different story.

I wont say anymore as not to give spoilers, but you NEED this book in your life like you need AIR. It will draw you in like a rip tide and pull you under in its clutches and twist you, turn you about, take your breath, scare you, and then finally spin you back
out the other side. You will never be the same, you will remember the feeling of it always.

I cant possibly recommend this book enough. If I could custom order a book to be written for me with all the things I want in it, this would be what was delivered to me, but then when I opened the box and started reading my book there would be unexpected bonus material in it. Thats how fantastically, phenomenally, unforgettably amazing this book is!! CoraLee June and Carrie Gray slayed this book!!
You get murder, mystery, suspense, sexy, angsty goodness. But you also get the swoony, sweet, and forgiveness. You get a book where enemies become allies. I was on the edge of my seat and I was here for it all! I will definitely re-read this book. Because honestly Im not ready to let these characters go. That epilogue yall. Im pretty sure my jaw is still ON.THE.FLOOR!
*I voluntarily reviewed an advanced complimentary copy of this book. But I loved it so much I had to buy a copy the second it released because I want to own it in every possible format.

My cr8zysockbookblock blog wrap up for this book!

Cliffhanger Warning- I loved the ending so much. I will say I got the SHOCK of my life at the end. I was gobsmacked. I was fantastic!!!!

Wow. So I thought I was clever, but Aggro kept me on my toes. I came in expecting just a broody story and was so drawn into these character. I grieved for violet and I bounced between the love triangle. Coralee and Carrie really did a number in my heart with this story. Its beautiful and so well written. Im in love with this story and the island setting is such a vibe I didnt realize I loved. I want more stories in this world. Its a phenomenal story and the characters are so real. The ending was amazing. So well written and so shocking. I legit reread almost instantly.
Give this book a go, you are going to love it.

5 AGGRO STARS!! OMG….This book will be in my TOP 10 books for 2020. I read this book in one sitting…so FREAKING GOOD. Breeze, Violet, Chase and Kai have story to tell you that you need to hear. There is so many feels, suspense, friendship, betrayal, secrets and lots of love. You must read this book….it is so good.

Holy crap…what a ride! This story pulled at my heart strings. I dont think I have ever read a book where I was completely shocked at a ending like I was with Aggro. Carrie and Coralee will bring you on one crazy emotional roller coaster ride were you wont be able to predict what will happened next. My heart was completely broken for Breeze, Chase and Kai throughout pretty much this whole story. When they finally found some peace something else would happen and they would be back where they began. This was a emotional story but so amazingly written. Carrie and Coralee wrote a phenomenal story! Fantastic job ladies!!! I need more!

This book took me by surprise as I was not prepared for what these authors would be throwing at me. Their previous book had me laughing so hard, it was light and fun.
With Aggro, these authors prove that their voices harmonize in a completely different genre.

Aggro was raw and hauntingly beautiful. This book deals with the aftermath of the loss of a loved one. The focus is on the three main characters and how they each deal with their grief, how they are looking for answers and find eachother in their grief. There is anger, sadness, pain and trauma. Emotions that are in stark contrast with the paradisiacal backdrop. Throughout the entire book, I felt like I was there, with the characters, IN the story. I felt their emotions, saw through their eyes and lived their experiences. I was invested from start to finish. And when I thought I had it all figured out, the authors surprised me with another plot twist. This was beyond amazing!

Let me confide in you that I am usually not a fan of love triangles ever since I discovered a thing called “Why choose?”. But Coralee June and Carrie Gray manage to match these characters in a way that there was little to no doubt where this was going, nor the fact that both boys had their own, very significant connection to Breeze. I ended up loving both of them, for different reasons, just like the FMC.
