Sunny Shelly’s Review: 4 Stars
Henry & Me was a cute, relatively quick read, perfect for a summer day at the pool or beach. This was the first book I’ve read by this author, and I thought that she did a great job with the arc of Max’s journey. I really didn’t like her in the prologue — I thought she was unnecessarily mean, but I get that was to set the stage for how far she’d fall a few years later as the story explores Max and Henry’s reversed positions in life.
I’m a little torn about whether I liked Henry, though. He’s the nicest guy in the world, with the patience of a saint, but he didn’t have much of a spine when it came to Max rejecting him over and over again, either? Or was he just THAT in love with her? Like I said, I’m torn.
There were a few inconsistencies in the story — she has the next day off, but then is at work; The Conflict happens on a Sunday, then she’s at work the next day and it’s been two days since she’s seen him; even the physical description of Henry wavers. None of this really took away from the core of the story, but they were enough to stick out in my mind after the fact.
There are some triggers in here when it comes to the reason for Max’s intimacy and trust issues. But Clinton does a good job of taking the reader along as Max works out her issues and fights for the man she may have pushed away one time too many.
Lucien is a hoot, and made me laugh so many times. Loved that kid! And I loved how the epilogue gives a glimpse into everyone’s future.
