A review by lastingliterature
If You Come Softly by Jacqueline Woodson

4.5

I felt it coming but I was not ready. Miah!!! 

I always struggle with insta-love in books, but I do know this is a loose retelling of R+J, so I will allow it. I am teaching the play in a couple of months, and now I am wondering if I should include this as a pairing?? 

Anyway, my poor heart. That ending. Oof.
