Well finally a book to get me out of my reading slump!! This book had everything I needed and wanted. It had angst, love, loss, longing, devestation, heartache, love and a whole myriad of obstacles that each of the MC's had to get through in order to be with each other! The chemistry between Savannah and Levi was off the charts! And this book has soulmates! I loved it and fell in love!

This was my first book by Brit Benson and I absolutely loved it! I’m going to continue getting acquainted with her works as I love her writing style and the way she makes me delve into the story!
Loved the plot even though it shattered my heart into pieces! Loved the characters’ development and the humour, loved the way MMC turns into a man of all the readers’ dreams and definitely loved the plot twists!

Ok…Macon may have some competition now that I’ve met Levi….holy hell does Brit know how to write men!
This book is incredible. Sav and Levi….ahhhhhhh!!!!! There is not much to say other than I loved everything about this story! The side characters were just as lovable as the main characters and I know this entire series will end up being a 5 star for me!

“You may not have been all my firsts, Savannah Shaw, but you’ve always been my forever. You’ve always been my one. My only.”
I have never been so devastated and enamored by a book at the same time. I mean, is it even a Brit Benson book if it doesn’t rip your heart to pieces and melt it back together?! This audiobook is impossible to pause without feeling the urge to crawl out of your skin to get back to it! Brit Benson’s storytelling is elegant, vivid, gritty, and soul-consuming. I spent every minute of this book yearning for the universe to let Savannah and Levi have their HEA, while also never wanting it to end. Between Never and Forever is a raw, heartbreaking, angst-driven, suspenseful love story overflowing with redemption, healing, and forgiveness. Levi, the rule-following cinnamon roll and Sav, the feisty, free-spirited, rock star are an amazing couple who will live rent-free in my heart.
Angelina Rocca and Jacob Morgan were SUPERB as Savannah and Levi. Their character development, energy and flow propelled this story off the page. Angelina gave a phenomenal performance as Sav throughout her gritty, trauma-filled, restorative journey. Levi’s transformation from the line-toeing, straight-laced, studious kid to the rule-breaking, growly fierce protector was incredible. From Jacob’s broody smolder to Angelina’s mellifluous singing voice, this audiobook is filled with aural delights. Angelina and Jacob brought Brit Benson’s story to life flawlessly; their passionate portrayal of her characters and vivid imagery made this audiobook a visceral experience.

Savannah and Levi were childhood best friends who reconnect years after being torn apart.
I liked how we saw their relationship evolve over the three different time periods. We see their friendship as children, their budding relationship and contrasting lives as young adults, and finally their reunion as adults. I enjoyed seeing how much Sav grew into her own confident self. I feel like Levi never really evolved as a character, like he remained the same throughout the entire book.
I have some mixed feelings about Levi, which mostly revolve around Sharon and Brynn's mother. I do understand the choices that Levi made and appreciate the fact that those choices gave him Brynn. That said, in both situations it demonstrates his saviour complex, something we see consistently throughout the book. What Brynn's mother didwas extremely fucked up. Yes, she was in a really awful situation, but she claimed she was pregnant with Levi's kid, when it wasn't his. She effectively ruined his relationship with Sav and destroyed his dreams in one fell swoop of a lie.
When it comes to Sharon,I get the desire to help others, the she has cleaned up her act, and that she herself was a victim. BUT she was an abusive mother and allowed her boyfriend to abuse the woman you claim to love, effectively traumatizing her. Then you turn around and not only allow Sharon into your life knowing how much it would hurt the woman you claim to love, but allow her to care for you daughter?!?! THEN you spring her on Sav without warning her?!? Brutal.
Sav lived through an incredibly traumatic childhood. She was continually abused by her drugged up mother's boyfriend and her safe place was always Levi. I have emense respect for her, she had to save herself and start from nothing. Her persistence and determitation paid off as she built herself up to be a world famous musician. The road to get there and through it wasn't easy for her, but she made it through.I respected her even more after seeing her reaction to finding out the pregnancy. She made the incredibly self-less decision to turn Levi away, so that he wouldn't have to make that choice.
The ending was wrought with unnecessary conflict that really went nowhere and added nothing to the overall plot.Why bring back the abusive ex? Was the fire really necessary?
Tropes: childhood best friends, second chance, musician, single parent
