In an effort to cut down on posts and burnout, my Review Roundups will feature 2-4 books I’ve read or listened to recently. Don’t get me wrong, there’s always a plot, but some are quieter than others? This book definitely felt like it would be a snapshot of time within this amazing friend group and nothing They’re my favorites because they spend so much time developing the characters so you really don’t worry much about if there’s a plot. Storytelling & Characters The book really felt like another quiet, slow and steady Emma Mills book. She learns more about August’s mysterious past and about herself, her friends, and her neighbors in the process. She envelops him in her amazing friend group as they try to track down their small town’s most famous person (Megan Pleasant, a country singer) in order to raise money for the marching band. This one doesn’t give much away in the synopsis but it’s about a girl named Sophie and the new cute boy next door, August. If I could start every year with one of her books, I would and I will. I borrowed FAMOUS IN A SMALL TOWN from Wendy to make sure 2019 got off on the right foot again. Get the reading year off to a great start, right? It definitely worked last year and let me tell ya – it worked again this year. Initial Excitement & Summary Oh man, where should I begin? I started 2018 with FOOLISH HEARTS because I like the idea of reading a favorite author (one who has NEVER let you down) as the first book of the year.
