Book Description:
It's fitting that they're reading Romeo and Juliet in class, because Raina Cohen's story is most certainly not having a happy ending. She'd ask her not-so-secret crush Jesse Ashcroft for his opinion, but the formerly close duo haven't spoken in weeks. Instead, Jesse's been hanging out with Nicole, who would happily ensure that Raina met the same fate as Juliet.
But thanks to meddling teachers, Raina's now stuck spending all her free time with the two people she's been trying to avoid. And with her mom breathing down her back about, well, everything, she's trying to balance family, religion, schoolwork, oh, and the simple fact that she can't get Jesse out of her head.
It's a slow journey to rebuilding their friendship - and possibly even more than that - especially with Nicole determined to stand in the middle of the road. But when Raina's father's job is put in jeopardy, it'll take the unlikely trio of Raina, Jesse, and Nicole working together to write their own stories.
Review:
An entertaining read. The story starts slowly, you'll get to know Nicole, Jesse and then Raina. I kept on reading as it contains so many really interesting characters. I was rewarded for my persistence. I enjoyed the character's personalities and the teamwork between all the side characters as well whether siblings or friends. I love the concept of having a healthy siblings relationships in this book.
I don't know that it's one of the book in series, later on I came to know that it's the second book in series but now worries you can read it as standalone too. I think the first book is all about Dean and Gracie story, so if you wanna read more about him you can definitely go for it. I love Ashcroft boys, they're so damn good.
Raina grew up in a strict jewish family, her mom doesn't like the idea of her studying in Tristan and also forces her to study in Jewish ideas. Also in her community girls shouldn't talk to boys, but Raina made some friends in Tristan and also she like Jesse who's not a Jewish boy. I got to know so much things about Jewish ideologies and their beliefs. Book represent queer characters also.
Finally this book is about Raina making friends outside of her community living in her own, deciding her career and all. I love Jesse Ashcroft and his platonic friendship with Nicole. I want to know more about Nicole part of story, but unfortunately this book is all bout Raina and Jesse, hope we'll get a book about Nicole soon.
