It's Not Home Without You by C. Lymari
5.0
A great read
This is a great start to a new series and a fantastic intro to a new-for-me author. Freya is returning to the small town home she ran away from when she was 18 to discover the consequences of her absence weren’t what she expected. There are a lot of hard conversations to be had - none more so than with her ex-boyfriend who is now engaged to the woman who tried to break them up.
I liked how real the emotions were. Even though some of the decisions the characters made were bad, the pain and conflict they felt was genuine and was written so well. The emotions were messy and complex, just like real life. The book also introduced a cast of characters that have their own stories to tell - this small town isn’t done with us yet.
