Some Mistakes Were Made by Kristin Dwyer
5.0
Ellis and Easton have been inseparable since childhood, but after some poor choices lead to Ellis’s life being upended, her moving to California, and not speaking to Easton, everything changes. A year later, she’s back in her hometown and forced to confront her past, Easton, and the feelings she still has for him.
This book hit me in all the emotions and was the most beautiful journey. I loved the alternating timelines and how we slowly saw Ellis and Easton’s relationship from the beginning and where it all went wrong was slowly revealed. This book was heartbreaking and hopeful and messy, much like first loves feel in the moment. I loved how it touched on class discrepancies, how family can be chosen, and how it tackled addiction. This book is easily one of my favorite YA novels I’ve read this year. These characters felt so real and I felt all of their emotions right there with them. I loved this one so much.
Thank you to Harper Teen for the advance copy.
