The Perfect First by Maya Hughes
4.0
A gem of a book
The Perfect First [#1] is a New Adult that takes readers on a journey of how Reece helps Persephone live her life to the fullest regardless of what people say; enjoy all those things that Seph had missed out on in her past eighteen years of existence.
It was very beautiful to read, and author literally created magic in this book. I swear I didn't put this down, not even once, until I finished the very last page and smiled goofily.
It felt so wonderful to see how much Seph changed throughout the book. She grew out of her awkwardness and grew more confident in herself. And Reece was there for her every step of the way.
He too had his own troubles which made him nervous and feel unworthy. He felt that it was safe to avoid anything that sidetracked him from his goals. But it all sorted out in the end.
“I’m scared too, Wild Child, but with your brains and my athleticism, we can outsmart or outrun any problem we come up against.”
The book made me chuckle and smile to myself, and the credit for that goes to Reece's friends including Berk, LJ, Nix and Keyton. They're all so precious!
The ending was satisfactory but I wanted more. I wanted an epilogue
