A review by bookworm097
First & Then by Emma Mills

4.0

When I first started this book, I didn't like it all that much. It didn't hold my attention very well (Probably because I was still living in ACOWAR, but whatever). But after buckling down and making myself read for a bit, I found I quite enjoyed it.

It was utterly predictable, as is almost every contemporary novel. So I suppose I can't hold that against it. It is quite short, but in that amount of time, most of the characters showed a good deal of character development, which is one of the high points for this story. Devon is incredibly relatable in her unextrodinary-ness, which was rather enjoyable. I also liked how the dynamic between Devon and Cas was handled, it was pretty realistic for that kind of a situation.

Definitely a cute story and didn't take much time to read, so I'd recommend it to any contemporary lover!
