her, and to be hers, but it’s not so easy.
She pushes, he pulls.

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 5 Stars
Let Her Go is one hell of an emotional roller coaster ride. There are so many things I want to say about this book, but I don’t want to give away spoilers!!! How the same event, one moment in time, impacted best friends Owen and Zoe in such fundamentally different ways was incredible. Zoe’s story is heartbreaking, and how Owen props her up every step of the way is nothing sort of amazing.
Zoe is such a strong character, even if she doesn’t believe it herself. And Owen is such a sweet and patient man, just being there to prove to Zoe that they are perfectly made for one another. When Zoe needs to put some distance between them after coming clean about the secret she’s been carrying for YEARS, my heart broke for Owen when he loved her enough to let her go, even though it hurt. And his pleas to “please come back” — I wanted her to come back to him, too!
Let Her Go is a young adult, coming of age novel, but it deals with darker themes than most college-set romances, and is full of triggers, so reader beware. But the story itself is a beautiful madness, and I couldn’t wait to get to the HEA for Zoe and Owen.
I received an advanced copy and voluntarily left a revie
ME FALL, SOUNDS OF YESTERDAY, A SKY FULL OF SECRETS, and LET HER GO), a twin, a
dreamer, a tattoo lover, easily swooned by accents, and a little bit of an
extrovert but a whole lot of introvert. When she’s not reading, writing or
people watching, she can be found listening to music, perfecting resting bitch
face, or at Dunkin’ Donuts.
