I started reading on Saturday night, just before midnight (I'm not sure why I got into bed so late and decided to read but clearly I couldn't help myself) and I had finished the whole book by 11pm Sunday night. I read the whole book in less than twenty-four hours. That's the sign of a good book already, when you can't put it down.
It had me hooked from the very beginning.
It was so great to go back to characters that I'd fallen in love with during the first book. Going back to Robin and Lyla was a pleasure and the journey these characters go on during this book really develop them as characters, especially with Robin. Character development is always important in a sequel because you've already been introduced to them and you need progression for it to remain engaging and interesting, and this book definitely does this well.
Robin is a juggler of work, parenthood, love, friendship and life in general and I love her for being so real.
The events of this book are really gripping, through the high points and the lows. The calm is constantly being challenged and it keeps the reader on their toes with anticipation as to what comes next for Robin. It changes quite quickly at times and hooks you in so you can see how the main character comes out the side, no matter what she faces.
It's packed full of emotion and heart.
The writing has Louise's signature flare that I adore. You can see so much of Louise in this book, which just goes to show how much love and dedication she has poured into it. As a person, Louise often has me laughing until my stomach hurts and her writing matches that same humour.
I laughed. I cried. I want to be friends with Robin Wilde.
I also want to be friends with Louise because honestly, I think she is so real and positive and relatable. She feels like a friend already through the computer screen and even more so after reading these books because it's another part of her to love.
Speaking of her books, I need a third one and I need it soon!
Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book, through all of the ups and downs, all of the giggles and tears and cringey moments, and I definitely recommend reading this sequel.
Louise writes humour so well. I've never had a book make me laugh like this before.
