Pretty Close To Perfect by Donna Schwartze

adventurous emotional funny hopeful inspiring lighthearted reflective

5.0

"Everyone has their own trauma. You shouldn't compare what you went through with anyone."

In typical fashion, I have chosen a sad quote as one of my favorites. Pretty Close to Perfect was emotional. However, it wasn't all heavy because it balanced with the perfect lightness (lightheartedness?).

Pretty Close to Perfect is one of my most anticipated books of 2023. I have been waiting to read it since I finished The Runaway Bride of Blitzen Bay. I'm glad it doesn't have the typical third-act breakup most romance books tend to have. Nash and Noelle are finally happy after their troubles in the The Runaway Bride of Blitzen Bay and get the happily ever after they deserve. It didn't matter that it took a little bit longer because the wait was worth it! 

Noelle and Nash have a special place in my heart! I WANT MY OWN NASH! I love the characters Donna Schwartze writes and can relate to them. The found family aspect spans different series, how they can seemingly show up, and the connections make sense. 

I love it every time I return to Blitzen Bay, and I'm saddened that this is the last official book about Blitzen Bay and these characters. But luckily, I know that I can reread the books whenever the mood strikes. I can't wait to see what Donna has in store because I know I will love it!
