A Girl Like Lilac by Victoria L. James

5.0

My love of books goes beyond being able to live a thousand lives with each story. It’s being able to live and experience and fall in love with the characters. It’s having that connection to them right until the very end. It’s being in the moment and being hooked on all the feelings the story is pulling from you.
There are some authors that can make you feel like you’re living the story along with the characters, they breathe life into their words, and Victoria L. James is one of those authors.
I’ve just finished A Girl Like Lilac and can’t put into words how moved and captivated I was by each and every syllable.
The writing was exceptional, so much so that I felt the emotion the author must’ve been feeling while writing. That’s a special gift for an author to have, to leave the reader feeling like they're a part of the very story they're reading.
Everybody needs to experience Toby and Lilac for themselves. It's a tale of young love, of bravery, of the things that really matter in life. How one person can change your entire world for the better.
It was a true love story.
Congratulations on an amazing book!
