Erin's ReviewThis is a book you have to pay attention to. It isn't your typical dark romance, Autumn doesn't get captured, she willingly goes. Why does she do that, you ask? Well, see that's where you must pay attention.The story is set sometime in the not so distant future. The world is much different than what it is now. People will do whatever they have to to get by. In this world people change. It's fight or flight for most, at least where Autumn is. Then she meets him.Tate is a complex person. Circumstances have helped create the man he is today. He is guarded, jaded and lethal when he has to be.He and Autumn's romance isn't hearts and flowers. It's darker than that. There are times I wasn't sure I would call it romance. It was more of a primal need. He and Autumn together are like chaos. They bring out the best, and worst in each other. She makes him feel things he hasn't felt in years and he gives her something she longs for. Can Tate make Autumn whole again? Can Autumn get Tate to face his demons? Or will the pieces of the two of them be too tattered to be able to be made whole again?While this book isn't as dark as some that I have read, there are many dark elements about it. The story is intriguing, the characters stripped bare and you want them to be happy.I hope you enjoy the story as much as I did. It's a solid 4 star read from me and comes highly recommended. ** ARC REVIEW FROM ABIBLIOPHOBIA ANONYMOUS BOOK REVIEWS **THIS BOOK IS RATED 3.5 STARSAfter being broken for so long, can you even put the pieces back like they were?Pieces of Autumn is a dark read, one that will have you guessing how it will all end. Society has crumbled, life is nothing like it was. Autumn signed herself away to Stoker, to keep herself safe from the man who's been chasing her for years. Being given to someone like Tate could be worse than living her life in constant worry and fear of being captured. Tate is cracked, dark, tortured, he's broken.Autumn is broken too. Pieces lying all around her.Tate and Autumn have one seriously messed up and weird relationship, if that's what you want to call it. He is master, she is slave. But with all that, they are both drawn to each other.Tate has secrets, a dark pass that he isn't proud of... And the Viper.I was scared for Autumn during this whole book. I didn't know what her outcome would be. She's with a sadist, who has a voice in his head. All the while hiding from someone who wants her dead. This girl has shitty luck, that's for sure.Tate and Autumn's relationship was constant back and forth. It gave me whiplash!!! The same thing over and over, and I got bored, very bored of it. I felt like I was reading the same thing, just different chapters.This book didn't pull me in, like a lot of other's do. I felt like I would never finish it. For me it was just repudiate, like I stated before. That's another reason I'm rating it like I am.For someone who enjoys the back and fourths, ups and downs, they would totally like this book. I'm not saying it's horrible, because it's not. The plot is good, the writing is great, the sex is sexy. But, I didn't connect with it. And for that reason I had to push myself to finish it, and I'm glad I did. I liked how it ended. So this is why I give Pieces of Autumn 3.5 stars.
