On the Fence by Kasie West
5.0
Oh the feels. This book was amazing. A fun and quick read that had me laughing and on the verge of crying in all the right moments.
I felt like I could connect with Charlie because like her I'm somewhat of a tomboy and have gone through the stage of thinking guys won't like the real person underneath because of what society thinks a "normal girl" should be.
This book really shows how as we grow up we come to realise that the people really worth your time will accept you how you are, whether you like different things or not.
I loved the banter between Charlie, Braden and her brothers and I also loved seeing her discover herself and her friendships with other females in her life.
Of course a big part of the storyline is also about her Mum passing away when she was just six, so this was the more serious and sad part of the book. I can't imagine what it would be like to grow up without having your Mum there, and Kasie West really wrote this well, shoving the emotion of particular moments right in your face.
This book was fun, light-hearted and serious all in one. A quick read which I would definitely recommend.
