We Just Clicked by Anna Bell
4.0
Izzy's developing her Instagram following. Maybe she lies a little every now and then. But everyone does it, don't they? Filters, hashtags - it's no big deal. Until it is...
I'll be honest, I don't use Instagram myself, but I know a bit about influencers. I'm sure it's a gross generalisation, but I have no difficulty believing the view of this book, that influencers are almost all lying to one degree or another. While I don't believe it's anything like as involved as Izzy and Luke, I easily believe that people spend time getting the 'right' shot, the 'perfect' filter.
I enjoyed the story very much. I like that we weren't sure about Luke until quite late; no one is perfectly good or perfectly bad and it's nice to see that reflected here. Aidan, on the other hand, is too good to be real. I did love the easy, banter-filled relationship that developed between him and Izzy, though. Love me some banter!
This book had some genuine, real things to say and I'm glad I got a chance to read it.
