Review

This is a great little novella featuring Lila, Echo’s best friend from Pushing the Limits (one of my absolutely FAVOURITE reads). Lila has been writing to a boy she met only once, two years ago, and they have become incredibly close. This is the story of their first meeting since they first met, and shows their gorgeously emotional shift from friends to more.

I really liked Lila in PTL, and I loved this opportunity to get to know her a bit better. She seems very immature at times, but that’s part of her charm, and her starting to grow up and be strong is a big part of her story. Lincoln is a gorgeous character, with some major family issues of his own, and his and Lila’s history, and their story together, is absolutely gorgeous.

“Is it weird that I feel so close to you even though you’re hundreds of miles away and we’ve only met once? I hope not. I’m glad that you’re in my life.”

Even in such a short story, Katie McGarry manages to bring the emotion, and I felt for both Lila and Lincoln. I loved the strong connection between them, and the way they are there for each other, supporting, and drawing strength from each other. It was beautifully written and very realistic.

I loved seeing Lila and Lincoln come together. It’s very YA, but very sweet. I hope we get to check in on them in future books.
