Laura Jane Williams has a knack for writing characters with so much depth, whilst making them feel so human - they acknowledge and accept their flaws and allow it to make them better people. The love interests are always men with more green flags than red and the heroines are able to articulate and embrace their emotions in such a beautiful way. She shows what true communication looks like - highlighting the need to not settle and be sure you’re in love with yourself, before accepting another. And she does this again, perfectly, in Lovestruck.
In this book you get hope, possibility and the feeling that there isn’t one right path for anybody to choose from. Life is complicated, full of lots of little decisions that can change our trajectory, but at the end of the day 1) we need to make sure we’re being true to ourselves and making sure we’re happy and 2) trust we’ll always end up where we belong in the end.
In true LJW fashion, there’s a whole host of wonderfully developed side characters to fall in love with!
One thing that made this book extra special for me was the fact it was set in Kings Heath - I place I spent two years of my life in my first job out of uni.
Thank you NetGalley and Cornerstone for the ARC.

I had a lot of conflicting feelings about Becca. She frustrated me throughout the book for rushing into things and being clueless. Saying that I didn’t see the ending coming initially which definitely redeemed the book for me. Some of the dialogue made me cringe and some didn’t flow naturally but I liked the whole alternate universe take. It satisfied all the ‘what ifs’ I would have had.

The premise of the book interested me but didn’t live up to expectations. I didn’t enjoy the instant love despite how the book reached its conclusion. The felt tedious and long in places.
