Dies ist der Plot: Die Eisbären wachen schon Anfang Januar auf, das Eis schmilzt um sie herum und zuletzt auch die Scholle unter dem Protagonisten "Bipolarbär". Der personifzierte Tod kommt per Motorboot angetuckert, um ihn abzuholen. Die Reise beginnt. Tod und Bipolarbär haben zwar komplett unterschiedliche Ziele, aber mehr oder weniger stetig geht es Richtung Südpol, wo Bipolarbär hoft, auf Artgenossen oder neue Freunde zu stoßen. Neben der Route müssen auch Leben und Tod ständig neu verhandelt und hitzig diskutiert werden, genauso wie die Identität des Eisbären, der mit seinen Ablenkungsmanövern versucht, dem Tod zu entgehen und immer wieder damit durchkommt. Anders ergeht es da den zahlreichen vom Aussterben bedrohten Tiere, denen sie in den unterschiedlichen Gewässern begegnen. Meist sind es tatsächlich die letzten Exemplare ihrer Art und der Tod hat seine Pfl icht zu erfüllen, wenn es auch meist die Menschen sind, die die Schuld tragen. Auch das versucht Bipolar Bär ihm auszureden. Er könne ja auch mal Pause machen, mal was andres machen, sich ein Sabbatical nehmen zum Beispiel. Und der Tod ist ja selbst nicht ganz unbefangen, was das Thema Tod betrift. Wie Bipolarbär nämlich herausfi ndet, liegt des Todes geliebte Großmutter im Sterben und ihn quälen Gewissensbisse, sie nicht zu besuchen und Skrupel, sie doch zu besuchen. Es könne ja das letzte Mal sein, weiß der Tod. Aber Bipolarbär schafft es schließlich, ihn zu überzeugen, sich seinen Ängsten zu stellen und zu seiner Großmutter zu fahren. Dort kommt es dann zu einem sehr intensiven und emotionalen Gespräch am Bett der Sterbenden und der Tod erhält ein ganz kleines, aber ganz besonderes Erbe: Samenkörner. Die Großmutter stirbt. Der Tod trauert. Und dann, geläutert von dem guten Gespräch und den weisen Ratschlägen, brechen er und Bipolarbär schon bald wieder auf. Der eine, weil er möglichst bald in seine neue Lebensphase als Gärtner starten will und der andere, weil er immer noch zum Südpol will, zu seinen Pinguinfreunden. So endet ihre gemeinsame Reise relativ heiter und friedlich. Diese kleine große Geschichte hat Federico Cacciapaglia wunderbar tiefsinnig und gleichzeitig unterhaltsam erzählt, in einer Sprache, die weltweit lesbar ist: Comic!!! (and english)

Not gonna lie Val kind of annoyed me at the beginning but she grew on me!! Her men are chef’s kisses!!! Holt annoys me some but I can let it slide. I already bought part two so I’m going to be reading that in between work phone calls!!!! DON’T TELL MY BOSS 😂😂😂😂

Baby bumps and bodyguards
Format: Kindle
Dark, emotional, and unexpectedly tender, Not Ready is an omegaverse romance that delivers found family feels, fierce protectiveness, and a very pregnant heroine who refuses to break. Vale’s on the run from a stalker, but lands in the arms of three private security alphas, cue the swoony tension, fake marriage twist, and slow-burn heat. It’s a little gritty, a little soft, and a whole lot addictive. If you love protective alphas, high stakes, and heroines with quiet strength, this one’s a must-read.

Strong Omegaverse Comfort and a Attention Grabbing Plot
Format: Kindle
Jillian West never misses when it comes to Omegaverse, and Not Ready is no exception. This story was the perfect blend of cozy comfort and emotional depth while still delivering a strong plot. Vale is such a powerful heroine, she is strong, capable, and determined but I love that she still allows her pack to love and take care of her. It’s that balance of independence and vulnerability that makes her so relatable. The relationship dynamics were amazing: Bishop is steadfast and completely head over heels, Mercy is skeptical but protective in his own way, and Holt is the hesitant one whose slow fall is so satisfying to watch unfold. The romance hits that sweet spot between insta-love and cautious build, keeping me hooked the entire way through. And that ending. Oh my god, the cliffhanger! I need the next book in this duet immediately.

Interesting
Format: Kindle
So I will say I enjoyed the story, for sure had its moments where it dragged but it was a great story. I really liked that omegas picked their alphas/make the pack. Normally the Alphas make it and the omega fits in with them which is great but I enjoyed this new version where all the power basically went to the omega. It was a nice change of pace. I can admit some of the weird bedroom stuff with her being pregnant was odd, it’s really not hard to do stuff when pregnant (I know I’ve had two and it’s normal and even encouraged at the end especially if you want the baby out). But I like the story as a whole and will read the second, I do hope the next one isn’t dragged bc it stopped being action or tense after she met her alphas and I don’t think it was brought up or properly done when they tried to do it. More sweet after she left.

I’m a little disappointed.
Format: Kindle
I usually like Jillian West’s books but this one was missing a lot for me. The pregnancy didn’t come across as real. She’s on her feet for 12 hour days but is perfectly healthy at 8 months pregnant? Yet the week she moves in all of a sudden she’s not? She is planning on actually running during one of the plot buildups. But at 8 months pregnant that’s incredibly hard to do. The lack of breathing ability and lung space, the change in body center, mass, and gravity. All of it prohibits running, unless you’re an athlete this didn’t come off as at all realistic. I didn’t feel any connection with the alphas. There wasn’t any emotional connection. It could be because of the tense it was written in. But I didn’t get any deep feelings out of this. It came across as checking off boxes. Even the spicy scenes weren’t really believable for me. I wanted to see them fall for her, and it just kind of all fizzled. Even Bishop. One thing I did really like was the ending. I did not see it coming and I’m interested in reading book two because of it. But on the whole this book was mostly disappointing for me.
