A review by brookelostinlit
I Kissed Shara Wheeler by Casey McQuiston

funny inspiring lighthearted medium-paced

3.5

3.5 stars /// My first CMQ book and I hate to say I was a bit let down. I feel like the wild goose chase was drawn wayyyyyyy out and a few times I skimmed most of the chapters bc I could guess what was happening. I just had a hard time connecting with both Chloe & Shara. And while I didn’t enjoy the main storyline I like a lot of others was drawn more to Smith and Rory and wanted more of their story! I also understand the importance of the story as someone who grew up in the South and raised in both the Pentecostal & Southern Baptist churches. But the story was so hard to keep up with a times. I think maybe having multiple POVs could have helped this story tremendously! So while it did not live up to my expectations fully I still think it’s a fun, cute, ya read that brings a lot of good attention to being queer in the south.
