Wait for It

Will Mariana Zapata ever stop making me feel things? I doubt it.

For once, I liked the heroine more than the hero. Might've been because I could relate to Diana or maybe who I'd want to be. She was so kind– sometimes a little too kind– but she always stood up for the people she loved. I also liked that she cried a lot. I do that too!

Dallas was just a soft boy who just wanted to be loved and love in return. I think he chose the best person to do that with.

My only gripe, although it's a small one, is that I didn't feel the connection between Diana and Dallas the way I did with Aiden & Val (Wall of Winnipeg and Me) or Rey & Sal (Kulti). Don't get me wrong, they were really cute together but there was just something there that lacked a little.

Anyway, Louie and Josh were adorable and I absolutely loved them. Louie, especially, had me laughing out loud throughout the entire book. I think they were the highlight of the book for me. I also really liked seeing how Diana raised and interacted with them.

Every scene that cameoed our favourites from Kulti and The Wall of Winnipeg and Me made me so happy. I just read both books but I'm already thinking about when I'm going to revisit them.

There were a few moments that made me cry a lot. But there was also a good amount of humour to compensate afterwards.
