A Brush with Love by Mazey Eddings
5.0
DID I JUST LISTEN TO A NEW ALL-TIME FAVORITE BOOK?!?!?! I THINK SO!!!!!!
A Brush with Love follows our two main characters, Harper and Dan, who are both in dentistry school and end up crashing into each other. They both have very different reasons for wanting to study dentistry and both are struggling with their pasts and mental health.
I loved the narrators for this book, which is saying a lot because I'm not very picky or overly interested in who narrates a book, but these two did a fantastic job and I was in love! Harper as a character was one of the most relatable characters I have ever read about! I felt so many emotions while reading about her, and even when she made terrible choices I couldn't help but think about how I would have done the same thing. Dan was also such a cool character! He was super sweet and supportive and I would tear up every time he started talking about his family life.
I don't think this book will work for everyone. It has heavy trigger warnings for anxiety, on-page panic attacks and it also delves into deaths of parental figures. While this is a cute contemporary novel, do go into it knowing that it does get very heavy and emotional.
Rating: 5 stars
