I had an idea for today’s prompt and I had hoped to have posted this a lot sooner, but yesterday was mostly lost to headaches and today I’ve tried to do a bit more reading alongside the football. (I don’t want to talk about it)
Today’s prompt is Books that made you feel and I decided I wanted to dedicate today’s prompt to Paige Toon as she’s written a number of books that have given me all the feels. Six for Sunday is a weekly meme created by https://alittlebutalot.comeach week a prompt is given and then you choose books accordingly.
This was my first ever Paige Toon read. I remember finishing it at 4am full of snot, red cheeks and tears streaming down my face, full of love for the characters and Paige’s writing.
I’d met Paige Toon a few times before this beauty was released. I remember her tweeting to announce the teaser chapters were on Netgalley. I remember being hooked and wanting more. In attending a blogger event we were given the proof in the goody bag. I started from the beginning enjoying re-reading what I’d loved. This novel was everything and so much more.
I met Johnny and Meg the wrong way round. In reading the YA novel The Accidental life of Jessie Jefferson. I had already learned the later stages of their lives but it was heartwarming and heart wrenching to get to know their back story.
There’s so much I could say about this novel. I read this in a day alongside my stateside pal and omg so many feels. Too many feels and some heart wrenching moments that I will remember for a long time.
In re-reading this one last year I felt different. My thoughts on the sisters changed slightly. The sense of similarity and that of love was apparent so much in this one. This is definitely a book with a multitude of feelings.
One Perfect Summer is pure perfection and is full of such love. In reading it I couldn’t believe it had taken me so long to read it what a truly gorgeous read. I may even get it out again as this summer looms.
Do you have a go to author that always makes you feel?
