100% Match (Pocket Nasties)

This book was for my September book read and it was a quick read. This book about a man name Bart who also faces and uphill battle with dating. His experiences he talks about are unmatched until one day he meets his match. I enjoyed the statistics through this book and there was a lot of fun and dating facts. I can honestly say this author touches on every trigger known to mankind so it’s safe to say if you have a trigger of any kind do not read this book, this is not the book for you at all. I’m not one who offends easily and can read all manner of books but this one takes the cake.

But maybe you like that kind of thing! At ninety-some pages, it’s a quick read. And very shocking at some points. Very gory in parts. It will shock you!

Very short story, something to read if you have a quick minute.The book starts out odd, stays odd, and ends very oddly lol. Didn't expect the ending that happened, and it had me saying, "hm. Ok then," when it came to that end.Entertaining though. Laughed out loud at some points. Not scary, does have some "ew" moments pending your tolerance or triggers (includes harming animals/children, genitalia/sexual acts, bodily excretions, mishandling of food, etc.). Didn't bother me, but I could see it maybe bothering some? Maybe? I mean, it is not extremely or explicitly detailed when those scenes come up.Give it a read, it's short, sweet, and to the point.

Like, what? What was that? Good storyline? I think? Two stars because it kept me intrigued enough to finish it. It’s safe to say.. this isn’t my cup of tea (and from how the main character makes tea.. it shouldn’t be anyone else’s either haha).

It was like a train wreck I got sucked right in and I just had to see it through. It’s comical and interesting but so so sick. I definitely don’t recommend for those with weak stomachs.

100% March was well written with the perfect amount of humor blended in.We meet Bart...a nondescript man in his 30s. He has the statistics on how to find the perfect match but he has some...well...quirks. Does he find the perfect woman? Or does karma meet him?The statistics were different but I still want more of a back story on Bart.

The media could not be loaded. The book itself was great. I finished it within 2 hours. Which may be the only thing I noted to self. The book was shorter than I expected. The book itself was not when I expected in general.I ordered it after hearing about it via Facebook thread. For weeks I hesitated getting the book but it didn’t disappoint. In the back of the book it has a recommendation book, created by the same author which I found cool .If you liked goosebumps as a kid you’d like this book, it gave me those vibes (except obviously it’s for adults) .It’s worth it, definitely buy!

I’d place it as a 2 and a half star because it gripped me enough for me to see it through. The reviews I kept seeing on instagram persuaded me with “eerie” “disgusting” it wasn’t eerie. It was sort of gross but at some point it stops being believable. When it looses that believability they just become words. What I enjoyed about this book is the protagonist facts and statistics style. I found that to be an intriguing quirk of his. I kind of thought this book was gonna be longer I didn’t realize it was a pocket book. I think the issue is I read it with the mindset that it was gonna be scary and disturbing when really it’s just the main character doing something gross. The ending doesn’t quite make sense either (SPOILERS) he claims this woman is his 100% match at the end and it’s just not very in character of him. Throughout this story he’s “denied” woman for this reason of that reason and I believe since he was looking for a life partner it’s a bit of a stretch to claim this last girl was that for him as she kills him. Maybe it was supposed to be said ironically? the way the cover offers that title “he has done his research” idk it feels like a cop out. I’m being hard on this book maybe because I’ve written pocket books too literally the same size. I was expecting the writing to be different. I want to leave it with something positive. I read it in one sitting it gripped me til the end and for that I can be appreciative.

Um homem em busca do par perfeito... e encontra! Uma excelente leitura para quem gosta de terror, é bem humorado, meio romântico e não tem problemas com gore.

Ho sentito tanto hype intorno a questo libro. E finalmente, ho piazzato l’ordine e in meno di due giorni è arrivato.Libro in inglese, con molti slang.Consiglio di leggerlo solo se si è “padroni” a pieno di questa lingua o si rischia di perdere molti pezzi.(Oppure sono io che ho piazzato male l’ordine e c’era anche la traduzione in italiano?)Detto ciò, è di facile lettura, QUASI scorrevole.Letto in meno di due ore.Il libro ti tiene attaccato fino all’ultima parola.Ho scritto quasi per le azioni compiute dal protagonista. Bartholomew, o Bart.Lavora in un fast food (non ci andrò più dopo questo racconto) ed è ossessionato dal trovare il suo match perfetto … da percentuali … e statistiche.È un essere molto ripugnante, e le sue azioni, sono altrettanto vili, disgustose e “gore”.Sconsiglio di leggere se siete animalisti o siete molto legati agli animali.Consiglio invece di leggere questo libro a stomaco vuoto.Ci saranno molti riferimenti che vi faranno rimanere scioccati e increduli.Durante la lettura ho dovuto parecchie volte mettere giù il libro e in seguito rileggere il paragrafo per capire se avevo compreso bene.La novella è un racconto di circa 80 pagine di puro disgusto.Vi ritroverete ad odiare il protagonista per le sue gesta e come riesce a scamparla ogni volta.Però alla fine, vedrete Barr andare incontro ad un destino che un po’ ve lo farà compatire.Meritato ma che vi farà dire “dovrei essere felice o cosa?”, insomma … un rollercoaster di emozioni.“100% match” è uno di quei libri che bisognerebbe leggere almeno una volta nella vita di ognuno.Ma una volta………. sul serio.E poi ti prenoti una seduta dallo psicologo.Alla fine della giornata, è un libro piacevole se ti aggrada il genere gruesome.😃👍🏻

This cute tiny book was in the mail today and I read it within an hour. I don’t know what I expected from all the reviews - but it’s way less gory or disgusting. It’s rather blackest humor, rudely funny. I’m not shocked or anything - just motivated to finish writing my own horror novel.

First of all, there are extreme trigger warnings for this book/novella.The short story follows the main protagonist, Bartholemew Bartley (Bart) a fast food worker, on his quest to find love and his 100%match in life.This novella doesn't quite fit into the genre of thriller, or extreme horror but perhaps the splatter punk genre. It is designed to get a reaction. It is supposed to make you feel something. Did I love this novella? No. Did I like it? Not overly. Would I recommend it? I'm not sure to whom I should.Bart, believe it or not, even with all the disgusting and vile things he does, is actually quite likable to the reader, although if im honest I definitely wouldn't like to meet him or eat from "Jim's" where he works.The short novella is filled with laughable (but maybe accurate) statistics that Bart knows about women and relationships. The book is equally gruesome as it is funny.100% of people will not recommend this book 😂

This book ticks all the boxes for me. I loved every single minute of reading it! From the sense of humor to the horror, a class act!
