I’m always up for reading a book about books, especially when there’s a little romance involved.

Sometimes overly dramatic plot lines give me a case of the eye rolls. In this case after my initial annoyance, I loved how the book sat with the characters at rock bottom and worked through somewhat realistic options for moving forward.

There is also a tinge of Christian verse dropping, which I wasn’t anticipating. Since everyone seems to have a different interpretation of scripture, I sometimes skim over those parts that feel like forced lectures on faith. Since I was already empathizing with characters, I pondered a little on how the scriptures may impact them. In my experience, spiritual epiphanies don’t usually translate well from person enlightened to another. Everyone is on their own curriculum and timeline. For me, the inserted verses accentuated the plot a little and didn’t detract.
