Destroy the Day by Brigid Kemmerer

5.0

I finished this book only moments ago, and I find myself not knowing if I will have the words to do it justice. I am a bit speechless. It's been a long time since I've read a conclusion of a book series and felt completely satisfied, but I sit here feeling just that. This book was an absolutely beautiful gem. I don't think I have ever cried, laughed, cheered, and smiled more than I did with this book. I loved the characters so much that I truly grew to care for them as if they were people I knew. In a way, I guess they were. They were so endearing, and flawed and just all together beautifully written. I honestly don't want to say goodbye to them. This author has a way of writing romance in a way that just makes your heart soar, but not only that, she has a way of writing a plot that keeps you completely captivated. Though it's character driven through and through, you can't help wondering what is going to come next for them. It was an amazing read, and one I will hold close to my heart. I would give it more than five stars if I could. To Brigid I say, thank you for that last chapter. Without it, I likely would have been destroyed.
