The Best Worst Thing by Lauren Okie

4.5

---

I LOVE when a book sneaks up on me with how much I enjoy it, and especially when it’s a debut. I quite literally could not put this book down over the last twenty-four hours. This was emotional, lovely and so wonderful. I actually would have still loved it even if it was about 33% longer because I just wanted MORE of everyone’s stories. The conflict was equal parts frustratingly unbelievable (but honestly some men do just suck that much) and so honest and raw. The bits of back story/timeline jumping were perfectly placed and built the current storyline up in the best way. I love Logan so so much ahhh!! I love the build up of the time the main characters spent together and the synopses of their conversations - it makes them feel so real! The flaws, the growth, the absolute LOVE of it all was so wonderful. I can’t wait to witness the readers who will love this book discover it and fall in love with it too.

Thanks to Avon and Edelweiss for the ARC!
