Where It All Lands
by Jennie Wexler
Where It All Lands is a love triangle (sort of!) / dual timeline novel about Stevie Rosenstein, the forever new girl in town, and two best friends, Drew and Shane. Stevie is always the new girl, thanks to her father’s job taking them to different cities, her family never fully unpacks and she never makes too many friends. Drew and Shane have been through a lot together: Shane’s father passing away and the deterioration of Drew’s relationship and his parent’s relationship. This book is also deep with musical references, as our three main characters are musicians who meet because of their love of music.
What I absolutely loved about this book was that the parallel timelines were not repetitive at all. Each timeline had its own rich story with unique situations, all working toward the ending. Every decision and action made has its own consequence and reaction. I loved that it kept me guessing and I didn’t actually know what would happen. I also had “Teardrops on My Guitar” by Taylor Swift in my head for about half the book and I feel like I can’t be the only one, right?!
Overall, I really enjoyed it and loved the characters. I simultaneously read and listened to the book over the course of a few days. I'd pick up the book and read a couple of chapters, then I'd throw on my headphones and cook dinner or go for a walk while listening. I especially loved the audiobook and narrators. I loved that they used three narrators and I got to have a special glimpse into their worlds and their hearts.
I received an eARC and Audiobook from NetGalley, St. Martin’s Press, Wednesday Books, and Macmillan Audio in exchange for a fair and honest review, and I’d like to thank them for the copies.
