Hearts Still Beating by Brooke Archer

4.0

4 stars. This was fascinating! A very good debut and I hope that the author does something else in this world. There’s a lot to work with here even if it doesn’t follow the same characters. Speaking of the characters they really had to grow on me, especially Rory (whew that girl was difficult to like) but by the end I was rooting for her and Mara. Their hostile relationship was intriguing and I thought both girls went through some really good character development. My only real complaint is the ending was a bit disappointing but that’s because I feel like an ending with a bit more grit would’ve worked better but that’s just me. Overall, this was very entertaining and unique. I’d recommend it for sure.
