I've been looking forward to this book for months! It was pretty much guaranteed that I was going to love this book, because it already had three things going for it.
1) It's written by the hilarious Jenny B. Jones.
2) It has a gorgeous cover, and
3) It takes place in Ireland. Another plus is that it's sort of a spin-off/sequel to her book released earlier this year, Save the Date.
There You'll Find Me was well worth the wait. It's another example of Jenny's perfect mixture of wit and humor and her touching way of dealing with difficult situations. In other words, you'll be snort laughing one moment and sobbing the next. :) I loved the plot (having Beckett be a teen vampire star was hilarious to me, someone who's anti-Twilight), the characters, and the setting. Finley's personality was easy for me to relate to, because I'm also a perfectionist and a control freak. Beckett was sweetly arrogant and slightly misunderstood. Beatrice was appropriately mean and villainous.
And the end? Go ahead, Jenny B. Jones. Rip my heart out and reduce me to a damp, sniffling pile of mush. :) It was perfect.
As usual, reading one of her books make me anxious to go back and revisit my favorites, particularly The Charmed Life series and Just Between You and Me.

I have this book in "my basket" at work and can't wait to buy it soon! I'm reading 'Save The Date' at the moment and I am loving every single page! =)
ReplyDeleteLOVED this novel! It was sweet, heartwarming and romantic (greatly thanks to Ireland, I think). I still have to read "Just Between you and me."
ReplyDeleteI don't think you'll be disappointed in "Save the Date" Sarah - if you like good humor, the novel is great!
