I'LL Be There For You by Brieanna Wilkoff | Book Review

Book review :

The book is a thought provoking, intriguing and depicting lots of POV's . The engrossing storyline keeps the reader hooked up from the start till the end. The book is fast-paced with easy writing and likeable characters, this book is exactly what i needed to get out of a reading slump.

The story revolves around Rae , a teenage girl who  just survived the first year without her 80's rock fan Dad. To cope up  she signed up for the school play in an attempt to live another life for a while, with the encouragement of Mac. Along the way she gets up to the usual teenage antics - new friends, first kisses and awkward moments with old friends. The book is basically her quest to learn to be herself again after her Dad's passing, and she does this through passing along acts of kindness.

Another girl,Joss is amazing, and again a very believable teenage girl. Her mega positive vibes or nature and over dramatic attitude about everything . She is such a good friend to Rae throughout the book. It is intriguing to read about Rae and her friend's acts of kindness missions so much. I do find it extremely important to value kindness and friendship, so it was lovely to see an entire book dedicated to just this; spreading kindness.

The author has well penned the teenage turmoils especially after the demise of her father. Language is lucid and quite engrossing. She has beautifully depicted  teenage romance ,the awkwardness of it all, how embarrassing and complicated teenage crushes can be. 

Overall, I liked reading this young adult contemporary romance. I felt a connection to this book and its characters that I don't feel in many books. All the characters have so much depth and personality to them like even the side characters have so much personality.
