Gluttony {Book Review}


Title: Gluttony
Series: The Elite Seven Series, Book Five
Author: K. Webster
Genre: New Adult, Dark Romance

Book Description:

From USA Today Bestselling Author K Webster comes an enemies-to-lovers, angsty college romancein the intense, page-turning Elite Seven series! 

My life has been served to me on a gold platter to be devoured by my silver spoon. 

Money, money, and more money. It’s the backbone of the Goddard name. I’m the only son, so it’s all mine for the taking. 

But sometimes money isn’t enough. I always want more, yet nothing seems to satisfy me.

My father has made sure I become a part of The Elite Seven. Where most candidates are chosen, I was given my place. Everything comes at a price, though. Luckily, I can afford any price—no one has more money than God. 

The Elite Seven have their initiations. My task is personal and beneath me—steal a car and send a warning. It’ll hurt my best friend in the process, but we both made a pact going into this. There’s no line we won’t cross.

My task makes an ugly turn and I nearly take a life. Such a small, unimportant person. Someone no one would even notice if she were gone. She’s a problem my money, and now power, can easily sweep under the rug. 

It’s what my father wants. It’s what my brothers in The Elite Seven want. Yet when she finally opens those big, innocent brown eyes, I realize I’ve found what I’ve been searching for my entire life. I don’t want my little problem to disappear…I want to keep her. 

Money is my legacy, but I want something money can’t buy.
I am Baxter Samuel Goddard, V.
I am Gluttony.

My Review:

So first I have to say that I know probably everyone else is going to give this book 5 Stars. Unfortunately I just can't do it. Man I had been so excited for this series when it started, and it had started so strong. But honestly it started falling apart. I know exactly where it fell apart, it was two books ago. So I was a bit weary going into this book. 

Let's start with Baxter Samuel Goodard, V., aka God, aka Gluttony. I wasn't sure what to expect of him in this book in the previous books he's kind of been the stuck up, holier than thou type. But man what we got of him in this book I wasn't expecting. My heart broke for God and what he was putting himself through. He's a man that is putting his body through things that people wouldn't expect from guy's or more like humans turn a blind eye to with guys. 

Ummm what should I say about Z?.... I mean she was alright. I felt like she was a bit nieve and maybe a little bit weaker than the other female character's in this series. 

I have to say at the beginning of this book I was a bit disappointed in it and felt like it was going to have a down slide like the last two books. And I found myself sort of skimming through it. But it picked up when we really got to know what was going on with God. I definitely thought the end of the book was much better. And kind of felt like the brotherhood of these characters was more in this book. Also I think this book definitely had more of a dark feel to it. 

I'm giving this book 4 Stars out of 5!!!
