Daydream by Hannah Grace

5.0

Hannah never misses. Once again she’s written such a beautiful book and I am in awe. We’ve all been waiting for Henry and let me just say it was well worth the wait. I can tell and from her socials I know Hannah put her whole heart into this and it shows! I loved every single second. It was quiet and soft and so vulnerable all while being so fun and full of the same chaos that the other Maple Hills have! Halle and Henry are so special and I’m so glad they got their love story.

Halle and Henry are both people who are so desperate to live up to the expectations of other but process that in different way and the way Hannah wrote each other experiences was done so well. They were both so complex and needed someone to really hear them. Which is not to say Henry’s friends couldn’t be that for him, because they are infact excellent friends and would do anything for him, but Halle was able to accomplish it in a way that Henry actually needed?? The way they slowly and so easily got to know each other, they communicated well even when it was hard for them, even when they misspoke. They were just SO GOOD.

This felt like it was a little light on the romance but it also wasn’t?? The romance was just quieter, softer. They were slowly falling in the love the whole book and they were just trying to figure themselves out while figuring out the other person? They were becoming such good friends which laid a solid foundation for their eventual relationship and it was BEAUTIFUL. They were having sleepovers and kissing and sharing things they’d never share with another person and becoming best friends!!

I loved this book so much. I loved seeing Nate and Stassie again. I LOVE Henry and Stassie’s relationship. And Henry and Russ!! They are seriously the cutest. And I loved that Aurora so easily befriended Halle. And that Halle was able to finally find her people!! Hannah knows how to write and family and this one is one of the best.
