this felt like a more thought out version of icebreaker. i haven’t read something this quickly in so long. i loved ryder and i enjoyed gigi. i love when a book can make me laugh out loud and the boys in this story really did that. i thought the pacing was great up until the last few chapters where it felt a bit rushed.

i had to dock points for the corny marriage plot point. it felt thrown in and rushed.

some of Kennedy’s metaphors and similes were really cringey but easy to look passed. i loved ryders character development and gigis commitment to him. mourning the fact that i finished it so quick, thinking of starting some of the other briar U stories.

Oh, I just love The Graham Effect. It is truly Elle Kennedy’s best work. The first time I read it, I hadn’t read any other Elle Kennedy book so coming back for a re-read now that I know Hannah and Garrett was truly delightful.

Gigi is a ray of sunlight on a gloomy day. She is kind, hard-working and knows herself so well. She is everything I hope my future daughter will be.

I would love to wrap Ryder in cotton wool. Witnessing his journey from closed off recluse to a committed and loving partner was so beautiful. His heart is so full of love and it’s wonderful to see him share it, not just with Gigi, but with his teammates.

My heart yearns for more intel on the rest of Hannah and Garrett’s friends and their families, but the glimpses I did get were gorgeous.

Now to The Dixon Rule!

I didn’t think it could get better the The Dare. & then I read this book!!! While, The Dare hit home for me. I just fucking enjoyed this book like crazy!!! Seeing Hannah & Garrett as parents is priceless! & then all the little breadcrumbs about all the other characters & their kids were the BEST PART!!!

Fucking Dean giving Gigi a huge box of condoms was hilarious!! And such a Dean thing to do!!

I love all they are all so close & Gigi grew up with them all as Aunts & Uncles & their kids as cousins! This has gotta be one of the best found family series I’ve ever read!!
But also, I just fucking loved Gigi & Ryder!!! They way they were there for eachother & supported one another! 🥰

Also how they first got together… Use Me… Fuck Yes!! Haha 😂

This book gives you all the laughs, but then also gives you heart & the struggles of life. I really could not get enough!!! 💜💜💜
