Thanks Renee for my signed copy! |
I love contemporaries, especially ones with a character I can
identify with, and this book was no exception. Goodbye, Good Girl by Renee
Blossom follows Kandace, a girl on a quest to both mentally find herself and
physically find her father. Along the way she discovers an adventure she never
thought she would be part of, and found everything she was looking for in the
process.
I
absolutely ADORED this book. It had so many unique elements: coming of age
mixed with travel mixed with family drama mixed with a little raunchiness mixed
with a thriller. I loved Autumn/Kandace's character and identified so much with
her myself. Constantly struggling to make things work and letting other people
dictate her life, I loved seeing her grow and change as the story went on, with
her ultimately getting to the point where she determined her own future. I also
think April was a great friend for her, and wish I had an April in my life
myself! Who knew a chance encounter at a bus stop could lead to a friendship
like that?
My only complaint was the Kyle story line, it really seemed kind of pointless
after the first few chapters, and I think he was an unnecessary addition to the
story. Overall I really really enjoyed this book and am so glad I had the
chance to read it! This is Blossom's first novel, and I'm so excited to see what
else is in store from this author.
Overall
Rating: 5 out of 5 Stars

Renee Blossom releases TODAY so be sure to pick it up!
Thanks so much to Renee, Netgalley, and Revolve for both a digital ARC and a signed copy.
As someone married to a Kyle I think I should be offended his storyline is pointless. Haha!
ReplyDeleteOooh, I've been looking for more contemporaries to add to my list!
ReplyDeleteSounds like the perfect weekend read! To the TBR pile it is.
ReplyDeleteyou had at "a little raunchiness mixed with a thriller" ;)
ReplyDeleteReading about other people's family drama is so much better than living in my own. :)
ReplyDeleteI also love reading about other people's family drama! I seem to enjoy contemporaries a lot!
