A Love Song for Ricki Wilde- Tia Williams
Rating: Loved and adored this
Ricki Wilde was an awkward woman who definitely didn’t fit into her family. Her family were well off and were snobbish. I truly hate that they treated her the way that they did, but I am glad that she stuck with what she wanted and still operated in her own lane.
Ezra Walker was a captivating individual who is also an awkward person but so musically talented that I fell in love with him. He was raised well and his connection to Ricki was captivating.
I throughly enjoyed this one. I was shockingly impressed with the story and writing of this story. I love the Harlem Renaissance era that parts of the story represented. I have felt every emotion as I was listening to this book (thank you Netgally for the opportunity to do so). The plot twist really took me for a wild mental ride and I loved every minute of it.
I am not going to spoil this for anyone but I will say this- Read it!! I am a historical fiction person and I love reading fiction that is different. This story was down my alley and I loved the lyrical masterpiece that was this story. Every emotion that was evoked from me as I read this was a breath of fresh air. I laughed, I cried, and I sat in awe at these words. I loved this story.
That ending.. I had tears in my eyes. This was well done.
Thank you #netgalley for the opportunity to review this fantastic story!!!
