Dare by Natalia Jaster
5.0

Reread! I liked it even better the second time!

I love Natalia Jaster's writing. She has become one of my favorite authors! This book gave me a whole Blue Lagoon type feel, which I might add that I hated that movie, but this is what the movie should have been! I felt this book was probably her deepest book, and a very character driven novel. We get to be inside Jeryn and Flare's heads, and there were all types of emotions going on there. Jeryn showed a lot of growth throughout Dare, and I was constantly wanting to shake him at times in the beginning, but never quit rooting for him. My favorite couple ever made a cameo, and I think I literally screamed! Poet is perfection! The only thing I wanted more of was conversation between Flare and Jeryn because there was a lot of thinking going on in their heads... I know she can't talk, but he can read lips, so when they were conversing it was magical, and I wanted more of that! Before I forget, Little Knight almost stole the show! And I absolutely adored how the book ended!! Full review on my blog https://literarydust.wordpress.com/2017/08/14/review-dare/
