Fragile Things is the first book in the Folkestone Sins duology and tells the story of Stella and Poe.
Fragile Things is Samantha Lovelock’s debut novel and it was amazing. After finishing the first chapter, I was immediately hooked. I wanted to know more about Stella and her past. Fragile Things was such a well-written and addictive read, and I would’ve finished it in one sitting if I weren’t as tired as I was.
Stella is one of my all-time favourite characters because she’s really fierce although she suffers from her anxiety. I loved reading in her POV and discovering more about her family. Poe is your typical ‘I don’t want her to fall for me’ guy and I couldn’t resist him. The way Samantha Lovelock described Poe… UGH I want him! I also really loved Sunday, she’s such a good friend for Stella.
Something that I really liked in Fragile Things was reading sort of the same scene in both perspectives. Sometimes I hate it because it’s repetitive, but I loved it in Fragile Things. You get to know more about what happened in that certain scene.
Fragile Things was such a good book, and I really enjoyed it. I think that Samantha Lovelock did an excellent job, and I was really surprised that Fragile Things is her debut novel. I loved every bit of Fragile Things and I cannot wait to get my hands on the second and final book in the Folkestone Sins series!
