I have a tendency to crush on fictional characters.
Just, yeah... I hated everyone (never Noah) at some point in this book and at different times I wanted to punch them (never Noah). Seriously, this was a book full of feels, awesome writing and tear inducing moments. Great great read.
Good thing I was alone because there were many tears shed.
Dear book,
I was so looking forward to reading you.
Thanks for breaking my heart, you kinda suck.
Sigh
I really enjoyed this book, especially the second part. I still don't understand Vassily's mother, her actions were so incongruous to the whole loving mother thing. Regardless a fun read was had.
Oh, I also liked the original cover better.
It's so so so awesome when a book pops up on my feed (Booklikes - thanks Ami) and the review just catches my eye. In this case, it led me to this book and all I can say is I'm glad.
The only thing I'd like is a prequel. It'd be great to find out how Russel and Dave met, how the children handled a new dad, how Dave became a full time dad... just little questions.
Great great read.
When I was young teen, I fell in love with a rock band and its guitar player. Full stop, this love affair lasted years. I'd go into the head shops on weekends looking for posters, tees, bootlegs... anything and everything. I saw them in concert, hell a certain summer I even followed them from venue to venue. When I was 17 or so not only were they playing in my city again but a local radio station had set up a soccer game, band vs DJs. This game was scheduled on a school day but...
My friend and I were there early, our spot staked out and everything, but my fave wasn't playing. What!? Seriously. But not all hope was lost. There, on the other side of the pitch... Gasp!? I still have his autograph and the picture of us together. It was awesome insane, totally worth losing my house keys and getting a weird sunburn.
I'm not a fan of age gap books, it's a thing with me. This though, was really good. It could have been crazy dark and crazy melodramatic, but it wasn't. Subtle, lyrical. It allowed us to see Ace and Liam's relationship.
