4,5/5☆
Wow. Ta książka jest zupełnie inna niż reszta. Ciężko przypisać ją do konkretnego gatunku bo jest i romans, jest trochę dramatu, psychologii i wątków wręcz paranormalnych. Jest bardzo nieoczywista, ale jak bardzo oryginalna, wzruszająca i dająca nadzieję. Polecam!

This story completely surprised me and I am still reeling from reading this. I was completed caught off guard by this story and I loved it. I loved every minute of reading this and I was utterly lost in my own world reading. This was such an emotional and beautiful story and I was so involved in this world and enjoyed the journey. I have become a huge fan of this author and I definitely can't wait for more from her.

⭐️ 4 "Now and Always" Stars ⭐️
Monica James is one of my absolute favorite authors! She knows how to creates powerful stories that get to you so deeply! Chase the Butterflies is one of these novels that is so special in his uniqueness, but it delivers all the same intense emotions I’m familiar with this talented author. I’ll keep this review brief because there’s nothing that can be explained without spoiling the whole surprizing twist of the story. I’ll just say that I personality had a little difficulty connecting with the start of the story that was kind of slow and it’s the reason I didn’t rate the book higher than four stars. Once I was finally entered in this world though, I was totally hooked by Victoria and Jude’s tragically beautiful journey! This book is different, but an experience for the senses! You’ll assuredly need a box of tissue to survive Chase the Butterflies, but these up and downs are are so worth it!!!!

When I stared reading I didn't know this was an unusual paranormal romance.
But I can't deny this was immersive and and gripping read.

Wow is all I can say. I did not want to put this book down. It was amazing and blew my mind from start to finish. Don't read people's reviews that have spoilers in it. Go in blind. I promise you won't regret it.

Chase the Butterflies is the newest standalone, contemporary romance from Ms. James and let me tell you, days after reading this book and I'm still mulling things through in my mind. This is a story that will haunt you with its gut-wrenchingly feels and emotional pain that at one point I seriously thought I won't be able to survive this book. Can I say emotional roller coaster? This book did it and more. I can't say anymore without spoiling this book and I really encourage you to go read this blind. You won't regret it. Loved it and I can't wait to read more from this author!

Holy crap let me catch my breath!! This book will take you to the edge and then shove you off and leave you breathless. The author takes us on an emotional rollercoaster of a ride and throws every plot twist we weren’t expecting in it. This book is hard to describe because it is so much more than just the regular romance story. This read has so many different elements and they all make this book unbelievably amazing. Victoria goes through so much traumatic events that you don’t know how she will hang on and make it through but she is a tough character and even at times when she doesn’t think she can carry on she starts to find herself and slowly move on but it is all because of Jude. Jude is a mysterious character that is drawn towards Tori, and she is drawn to him but isn’t sure she is ready for this type of relationship. I don’t want to give so much away but Tori and Jude have a unique and beautiful story that is hard to describe but can be summed up as one of a kind and uniquely beautiful. A beautiful book that should be made a movie because it is one of a kind.

Chase the butterflies is unique, daring and courageous.

This is a story about picking yourself up after a traumatic experience, told through the metamorphosis of the butterfly.

It's honestly like nothing I have ever read before, when thinking about something that could potentially be similar I think J.T Geissinger, but this is something else again.

I honestly don't know how to do this review justice without giving everything up.
If outside of the box is some you think you can read and open your mind to then this is the story for you.

Monica wrote this book to honour her dad's memory, you can feel the emotional bleed over the pages.

Dealing with loss is different from person to person, and though it's fictional, I hope this book can help even one person work through their own turmoil.
