A Couple of Book Reviewers

How cute was that! This was a short and sweet coming-of-age story that, despite its length, was still able to pack a good punch.

While I “came of age” a fairly long time ago, let me just say that you don’t have to be in that age group to enjoy this story. It took me back to my youth and my own trips to the drive-in. Rainbow Rowell captured the experience perfectly. From the snack bar, the playground, the old sound systems that you had to put in your car window, I was transported right back to those days.

Rowell also captured the feelings of youth. With the uncertainty and insecurity of youth, Julia often feels invisible to her peers. She finds herself to be unremarkable and assumes that others feel the same way. In this story, we get to see Julia step out of her comfort zone and let herself be seen.

We are a couple of book reviewers

The couples who read together, stay together. That may not be scientifically proven, but it’s worked for us. We have been blogging for over twelve years. While we do enjoy reading together, we rarely read the same novels (although, it does happen occasionally). Sometimes a good book is just too good not to recommend to your spouse/blogging partner. If you’re looking for a book recommendation, you’ve come to the right place. Between the two of us, we cover a wide selection of genres. If you have a recommendation for us, we’d love to hear it! As always, happy reading!
