Educated by Nellie Wilson
5.0
Finishing Educated exactly a year after finishing Need S’more Time was an intentional choice that has had me feeling very sentimental the entire time.
For the last year, I’ve patiently waited for Dec and Phoebe’s story to make its appearance. And yes, it did come out in August. And yes, I did technically read it before the ARCs even went out. But for some reason, it took me until this month to count it for my reading goal. But it was worth the wait.
I got to fall in love with Dec and Phoebe and the whole Vanberg gang all over again. The slow burn between them was worth the wait. Seeing their friendship develop into something more was so beautiful and you can really see that under their romantic relationship, they are still the best of friends. It made me laugh, it made me cry, it made me message Nellie many “👀👀👀👀” messages when I connected the dots about something. And, of course, Nellie continues her streak of writing characters who feel so deeply personal and connect to me in ways I’m always surprised by.
I can’t say enough good things about the characters Nellie has created and the stories she tells. If you stumble across any of her books on KU (especially this one!!!) take the jump and read it. Trust me.
