Walking Disaster (Original)
Walking Disaster (Original) | Jamie McGuire
How much is too much to love? Travis Maddox learned two things from his mother before she died: Love hard. Fight harder. Finally, the highly anticipated follow-up to the New York Times bestseller Beautiful Disaster. Can you love someone too much? Travis Maddox learned two things from his mother before she died: Love hard. Fight harder. In Walking Disaster, the life of Travis is full of fast women, underground gambling, and violence. But just when he thinks he is invincible, Abby Abernathy brings him to his knees. Every story has two sides. In Beautiful Disaster, Abby had her say. Now it s time to see the story through Travis s eyes."

I read this series a few years back and it got me into reading, it‘s remained one of the few that I still think about.
Can anybody recommend some books similar to this?

So I had someone recommend this series and I have to say so far I‘m enjoying it. This story is a retelling of the first book but from the POV of Travis Maddox the male protagonist.

Bklover Is Beautiful Disaster the first book in the series? By the way, Welcome to Litsy! #LitsyWelcomeWagon @LitsyWelcomeWagon (edited) 5y
KristiAhlers @Bklover, yes Beautiful Disaster is the first one and I INHALED that one in a day. Even though this is the same story but from a different POV it‘s still new if that makes sense. And thanks! I can see this place is going to be so much fun! 5y
Bklover Yes it is. Also make sure to follow @RaimeyGallant and @Chelleo and also check out the @litsywelcomewagon. 5y

⭐⭐⭐⭐
I liked this one almost as much as Beautiful Disaster...it was really repetitive but it was great to get inside Travis's head about the situations....plus the epilogue is completely different and tells something you don't get to read in Beautiful Disaster. It's worth the repetition, I promise you.

This week's check-in.

Not a "Walking Disaster" at all. Would have liked to exercise more but hay-fever makes me short of breath.

This is over before I even heard a minute. As you see in the picture above (👉🏼 https://www.amazon.de/Jamie-McGuire-Beautiful-Reihe/dp/B01BQ64DGS) it‘s the third part of a series. Makes no sense to begin here.

And, again, I don‘t understand, why titles that belong to a series or not marked appropriately.

(Another audiobook that fills the slots for lendings in my online library without having the chance to return it earlier.)

#BookishGoal: 54

TrishB I hate when that happens! 6y
Buechersuechtling @TrishB Yes, so do I. 😢 I mean if I buy a book I do inform myself before I pay for it. Is it asked too much to gather information before one buys media for a library❓ I just researched the catalogue. This is the only volume of the series they have (in which ever media). Can anybody explain why they do this❓ Start with book 3. 🙄 6y

I learned from Litsy that my new audiobook is part of a series. 🙄
And that the protagonist could be a fleabag. 🤢

Buechersuechtling If he‘s like the guy in „The Club – Flirt“ this one will for me be over soon, believe me. (edited) 6y

I loved this book!! It was a little slower going than the first book since I already new the plotline but still worth the read!

I read this book right after finishing Beautiful Disaster, which changed my rating just a bit. It is the same story, but from Travis‘ point of view. I get the criticism that some have given it, that it was too much of a direct retelling of the original story, with most of the dialogue verbatim, but there is some new material and insights. It would do better if you hadn‘t just read the first book. But I still really enjoyed it!

RaimeyGallant Nice review. :) And welcome to Litsy! #LitsyWelcomeWagon Some of us put together Litsy tips to help new Littens navigate the site. It's the link in my bio on my page in case you need it. Or if you prefer how-to videos, @chelleo put some together at the link in her bio. @LitsyWelcomeWagon 6y

Hi Littens! I had problem with Litsy yesterday. Litsy sign me out and shoutdown. And didn't allowed me to log in. But today I'm back. I delete Litsy app and download it again. And reset my password and here I am. Hope this will work!

There is yesterday post.

Travis aprendió dos cosas de su madre antes de que muriera: Ama con fuerza. Lucha todavía con más fuerza. Su vida es un espiral de mujeres, apuestas y violencia. Y, justo cuando se considera invencible, Abby consigue derrotarlo. Toda historia tiene dos caras. Ahora es momento de conocer la historia a través de Travis. Él lo único que quiere es sexo pero ella le deja claro que solo serán amigos. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I can't finish my book tonight because I'll be pacing the hallways in my apartment building trying to catch up. I'd usually be proud of my two day total so far, but my friends are making me feel so inadequate. 😭😭 Can't talk, gotta walk.

I have to stop. Travis is an arrogant asshole and how any female could tolerate his (bordering on)violent outbursts is beyond me. I'm glad I didn't buy the whole series at once because I've had enough of this guy.

I wasn't a fan of Travis in the first book and didn't realize this was the same story told from his POv which I usually hate. Hopefully I can get they this as so far, even by page 8, he's not scoring any points with me with the way he's talking about women.

"One of these days you're going to fall in love, son. Don't settle for just anyone. Choose the girl that doesn't come easy, the one you have to fight for, and then never stop fighting."
These are some of the last words Travis Maddox heard from his mother.
