The Corey Effect by Casey Dembrowski

 



A novel full of wonderful characters and excellently written. The relationship of Andi and Corey is related in a then and now thread that explains the love they felt as teens and the deep connection as reunited adults. A myriad of problems arose that stymied a happy ever after as teens and arise as adults. Until a true reconciliation can happen, the problems will continue to haunt them. I adored the novel.

So Long Chester Wheeler by Catherine Ryan Hyde

 


I am so glad I was able to get an ARC of So Long Chester Wheeler. It is an absolutely wonderful novel relating the development and enduring relationship between Lewis and Chester. The trip they take is long and arduous. During it, Lewis learns so much about himself and his life. Truly well written and engrossing.
