Try Right by Jill Brashear
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
I truly enjoyed this book and found it a complete story on its own. Only after I finished did I realize I had jumped into the middle of a series of books. The author did a beautiful job fully developing the story and relationships. I loved the nod to retro Hawaii and truly felt that the setting in and of itself became its own instrumental character to the storyline. A beautiful story of relationship, connection, emotion, and love.

This heartwarming YA read was a quick and enjoyable book. It picks up where the first book ended but can be enjoyed as a standalone. Lots of YA angst and emotion. If you identify with Cecily be prepared for an emotional onslaught. It took me back to my teenage days obsessed with boy bands and dreaming of stardom and boyfriends. Something you could easily share with the teenager in your life.
