A review by taylorimbey
Binding 13 by Chloe Walsh

dark emotional funny sad medium-paced

4.0

I wish the characters were a bit older, like university level because they feel older at times. But I enjoyed the slow burn tension between Johnny and Shannon. Because she’s so young and they are at that time in their lives where you’re experiencing big changes and picking the path you want to venture down, the tension of holding back feelings is understandable rather than annoying. I also love Gibsie as a side character. This book can be a bit heavy at times and his humor brings in a nice bit of levity. 

Likes:
  • Slow burn, will-they-won’t-they
  • Humor/Banter - especially from Gibsie
  • “Who hurt you?”
  • Set in Ireland - love the slang

Dislikes:
  • How young the characters are
  • Both the moms in this book drive me up the wall
