Book Review

an amazing book jam-packed full of adventure, friendship and love

Arias character is so relatable. She’s for all the girls out there who are searching for that perfect love. Who are waiting for the right guy. For the girls with the hopeless-romantic heart. She’s not only relatable, she’s funny, smart and all around, one of my favourite main characters.

My favourite line by far was “Love is not being starry-eyed when someone opens a door for you or makes dinner reservations or even asks you to dance on a cold, tiled r. Love is aching for the other person when they are in pain. Feeling your own heart break for them and wanting to make the sadness stop.” The first time I ever read this line, I fell inlove with it. It was magical. It shows people that love isn’t grand gestures it’s the little things that make it good.

My favourite character by far was Strat. Even though he had an arrogant demeanor, he was such a sweetie at heart. He tried to do everything right for Aria. He looked after his dad all those years when his dad couldn’t look after himself. He wanted the best fir everyone which made me love his character even more. And, not going to lie, he was a very good boyfriend to Aria the second time round and usually I was giggling everything he said something abut swoony to Aria.

Overall, I loved this book with all of my heart. This book took me on an emotional roller-coaster. I was laughing. I was crying. I was angry. I had so much fun reading this book and I woudk love to read another one liek this. I would recommend this book to anyone who loves romance books and is into the second chance romance trope.

About the Book

Every night, at exactly 12:00, Aria appears some place incredible. A moonlit path between enormous seqoiers. A picturesque waterfall in Bali. On a ferris wheel, watching the sunset. And every single time a boy, who is everything her hopeless-romantic heart had ever wanted, is there. Tall. Handsome. Dreamy. But of course, he’s rude, annoying and very arrogant.

However, Aria can’t shake this feeling that they have met in the real world. As their connected dreams become a place to escape from their broken worlds, memories of a thrilling past start to rise up. Soon, they both realise they whipped their memories of eachother. But why?

Can they figure out what happened between them and create a real relationship without jeopardising their friendship?
