CIARA'S REVIEW
4.5 November stars!!!
Wow. I know the word wow is probably overused, way wayyyyy overused BUT that was the one word I kept repeating, after I finished reading about Ben and Fallon.
In a Scale from Slammed to Ugly love. This book is a Total November 9. (Yes Colleen needs her own Scale, since I can't pick a favorite)
Let me start by saying how much I LOVED the characters. I laughed so hard at moments like this...
" I smiled. Because I was hoping if I played my cards right- I might get to find out exactly what kind of panties you were wearing under those jeans."
I adored their conversations .Their connection was so strong between them and I FELT it. Even when they were apart for 1 whole year, I never felt the separation and I'm so glad it was set up that way.
Colleen always and I mean ALWAYS has the amazing ability, of getting me lost within the story, of making me feel like I'm right there living and breathing these circumstances with the characters. aren't these stories the best kind? I definitely think so.
I instantly connected with Ben and his amazing sense of humor. With Fallon it was a little different, her insecurities definitely defined her personality, and although she was funny and I loved the banter between them you could tell she was hiding.
"You'll never be able to find yourself if you're lost in someone else."
I started this book late at night thinking I could read a little bit and finish it the next day. It was 6 AM and I was STILL reading it. There were two things, two exact moments that I wanted to scream my heart out, I was livid, sad, back to angry. I felt like she kicked me in the chest, I couldn’t breathe. I was stunned. I was done, I didn’t think it was fixable. So I of course couldn’t and wouldn’t let go of the book until I finished, I HAD to know what happened.
How in the hell did I ended up forgiving and loving them even harder? I have no idea. But I did. The "Hoover mystery" lol. This next quote explains it perfectly...
"This is real life, and in the real world you have to bust your ass for the happy ever after... when you find love, you take it."
This book was unexpected, angsty, so funny, beautiful, so swoony. It was real. Read IT.
