Dirty Letters by Penelope Ward, Vi Keeland
4.0
I knew I would like this book the minute I read the synopsis and the second I saw all the two starred ratings and reviews. What others reject, I accept. (Haha I'm lame as hell, nevermind that.)
First thing's first though: THERE IS NOTHING 'DIRTY' ABOUT THIS BOOK, IT'S BEAUTIFUL. Well. . .if you ignore the smut, that is. Seriously, I really liked it. The writing is great, the plot is smooth, the characters are well developed and, overall, there's crazy passion between them.
Secondly, I'm a sucker for the whole 'pen-pals to lovers' thing. This book met my expectations. Even though I didn't have many, it was a fairly entertaining read. I couldn't put it down. LUCA AND GRIFFIN ARE JUST SO FLIPPING CUTE! Argh.
The authors have successfully captured and wonderfully portrayed the whole agoraphobia thing. And there is nothing more beautiful, for me, to read about characters who grow out of their fears and face life head-on. This exactly might've not been the case with Luca and Griffin but they definitely grew. Especially, Luca. I felt like a proud mother watching her kid graduate or something (it's creepy, considering I'm just 17) when the book ended- at Luca's progress.
Ooooh and the romance is fiery and I LOVE IT. I even shed some tears. For what, I do not know.
Fun fact: At a point, my e-reader fell out of my hands because I was squealing and shuddering at how cute and weirdly fun this book was. Call me crazy.
