This has been a hard reading year for me. I’ve been generally unmotivated to start new books, but I requested an arc of Bombshells because duh, it’s Sarina. I told myself to just read the first page and if I didn’t feeling like reading I would try again the next day because reading slumps are real folks. Well I am here to report that one page was not enough! I ended up reading half the book before taking a break! I didn’t want to put it down and was reminded why I love, love, love to read. This book is why. Bombshells is why. Sarina is why.
Bombshells had something extra. It definitely felt like a Sarina book, but somehow it was more. I liked the depth and the details of Sylvie’s personality. I loved hearing about her overcoming her challenges and her relationship with her mom. I loved how fresh it felt. There were a few times I thought I knew what was going to happen but I loved that I was wrong. Sylvie’s character did a remarkable job demonstrating that life doesn’t always go as planned and sometimes that can be the best scenario possible. She teaches the reader that its ok to let go of your plan and change course. I really felt that by the end and I think that is an important and powerful concept in leading a happy life.
5 stars for Bombshells- one of my favorite Sarina Bowen books.
