Practice Makes Perfect by Sarah Adams
4.5
"It seems to me, Annie, that you are just waiting for someone to give you permission to be yourself out loud."
4.5 stars
I had so much fun going back to Rome, Kentucky! The townsfolk are just as meddling as ever (maybe more so?!) and the vibes are just as perfect!
Annie is a character that I heavily relate to, so this book is really close to my heart. Her experience with social anxiety and also her need to come off as the "good girl" to keep the peace really hit home for me. I also love Will's character, and his relationship with Annie. (YAY for no miscommunication... These two know how to talk and be honest with one another!)
There were quite a few scenes that had me CACKLING (The Little League scene will live forever in my head) and honestly I just felt giddy every time I picked up this book.
Often times with a series that focuses on different characters/couples in each book, I find things can be a little awkward when the previous characters show up in later books. Their personalities might seem different, or their interactions with other characters, etc. But I found that Noah and Amelia felt like the same Noah and Amelia that I fell in love with in When In Rome, and their exposure in this book felt like a really good balance between keeping up with their relationship, and yet keeping the main focus on Annie and Will.
I'm in love with the characters in this series, and I can't wait to keep coming back to Rome, Kentucky!
If you've picked this up, I'd love to know your thoughts! If you haven't, I definitely recommend it. I highly suggest reading When In Rome first, but this can be read as a standalone.
