The Otherworld by Abbie Emmons
5.0
My new favorite contemporary romance!
Ah! I struggle to find a good book that can suck me in deep enough to keep reading and usually it's a thriller that does so but The Otherworld by Abbie Emmons sucked me right in. It's such a clean romance but with realistic 3d characters that had goals, flaws, and real personalities that made me want to know them. Even the side characters in this story came alive. It had a few good twists and handled a bit of a love triangle well. I was on the right team but I loved that she wrote it in a way where you could understand both sides. It did have a few twists I didn't see coming especially one but it made the story exciting. I looooved the story from start to finish. Oddly it reminded me of The Little Mermaid and Pearl Harbor.
As a side note I watch Abbie Emmons' YouTube channel since I'm an author too and she gives such good advice but it shows in her writing. She is such a good author and writer and master storyteller!
The story is also clean which I looove. It's hard to find a good romance with all the drama and realism and grit but without any sexual content so I really appreciated that. I also really enjoyed both Jack and Adam and their relationship as brothers. I love stories about brothers and their relationships and this one gave me my new favorites.
Literally my new favorite contemporary romance. But I need more or another book just like this. What am I supposed to do with my life ?!
