magdalena0831 's review for:
Just Look Up
by Courtney Walsh
4.25/5*
Lane's brother Nate got into a terrible accident and is in a coma. To check on her brother Lane is forced to go back to her hometown - Harbor Pointe. But that's something she doesn't want to do. Because that's the place where she was bullied as a kid and where her whole family (except for Nate) betrayed her when her fiance cheated on her with her sister. She goes back 'home' and she has to face her past and she's also reacquanted with her friend from childhood - Ryan.
I really liked this book. The whole story was thought through and everything made sense. I liked the main characters as well as some side ones - for example Betsy and Chloe. The only thing that was unrealistic for me was the whole Nate situation. When he was in the hospital I didn't really feel that his family was very sad and concerned. They were living normally and just visiting him from time to time. I haven't seen their dispair and fear that he might die - maybe it was their way to cope with the situation but for me it didn't feel like it. Same thing when he woke up - they were happy for a second and then they forgot about him and he hardly appeared at the end of the book. I wish we saw more scenes with him and Lane at the end since they used to be very close.
