Follow the Stars by Gwen Martin

4.0

I won a copy of Follow the Stars from a Facebook group giveaway. I decided to read it through KU to ensure the author still received something from my reading.

Anyway, it was a really heartfelt story with atypical MCs. They are college aged (right after graduation), but they were both mature and forced to grieve. They just lost their best friend to an incurable illness, and embarks on the road trip of her (their) dreams in her memory. They embrace their love for each other along the way.

It’s a slow paced story. The first part was really tough. I cried quite a bit, and was hoping that it would not be so emotional all along. It didn’t. I really enjoyed all the imagery surrounding stars used in the book. I also liked the difference between the POV of both MCs, since one is presented as letters. All in all, an excellent and heartfelt read!
