BOOK REVIEW: Forever My Girl by Heidi Mclaughlin



Summary from Goodreads:

I was never supposed to be a rock star. I had my life all planned out for me. Play football in college. Go to the NFL. Marry my high school sweetheart and live happily ever after. 

I broke both our hearts that day when I told her I was leaving. I was young. I made the right decision for me, but the wrong decision for us. I’ve poured my soul into my music, but I’ve never forgotten her. Her smell, her smile. 

And now I’m going back. 

After ten years. 

I hope I can explain that after all this time. 

I still want her to be my forever girl.


MY THOUGHTS:

FIVE MUCH DESERVE STARS! :)))


I have my fair share of favorite books but there's only a few of them that I could classify as an unforgettable one. And this book is one of them. MY BEST BOOK OF 2013 so far.

It's only rarely that I adored the book so much that I literally devoured it. I could not put it down - I read it in one sitting. I can't help myself yet it's one of those books that I hope would go on and on. Every scene will have you holding your breath and have you anticipating every turn of event.

This book is really something because it's capable of drawing you in, you will find yourself getting lost into the story. It's a roller coaster of emotions while I was reading this. When I was in college, a professor of mine had us differentiate sympathy and empathy. To sympathize is merely supporting someone and being there for them while to empathize is feeling what someone felt, being in their shoes quite literally. With other books I have read which I did like or even loved, I thought it was enough that I sympathized with the characters but with this one I empathized with the characters. And I think that what makes this book so special and outstanding. I cried, I laugh and I even found myself falling for Liam, hahaha.

I don't know if my review did justice to how outstanding this book is. I think one should just see for themselves. It's one of those books you can't afford to pass out on especially if you're a big fan of romance novels.

My only dilemma now is that because it's sooooooooo good I don't have any idea what to read next. :|

RATING: 5/5
