What's Left of Me by Kristen Granata

5.0

This book is a romance that delves into so much more than two people falling in love—it’s a story about two people who have to learn how to better love themselves, heal from their pasts, and open their hearts to new beginnings.

From a writing perspective, what Kristen is able to accomplish in roughly 300 pages is nothing short of incredible. To cover such a grand arc of the end of one relationship blossoming into the beginning of a new and better one, is a daunting challenge but Kristen rose to it. Callie and Cole are fallible and imperfect, but their desire to be healthier, to grow and evolve makes this a love story not born out of fairytales and carefree living, but the real work of survival, the tenacity it takes to leave your life and start over, and the joy of finding true, safe, loving partnership.

Perfect for readers of Colleen Hoover, Kandi Steiner, and Emma Scott, WHAT’S LEFT OF ME will take your heart through the wringer of so many emotions, real-life struggles, deep friendship, and healing love. Grab your tissues, buddy read this with your friend who’s ready to ride the feelings rollercoaster with you, and seriously prepare to fall in love.
