The Long Distance Playlist by Tara Eglington
5.0

AHHH. THIS BOOK!!! Please dont mind me if this is the only book I talk or think about for at least 4 months. This book was such an amazing YA Romance and I wish I could read it again for the first time! Isolde and Taylor used to be best friends until one fight ruined everything. 18 months later, Isolde gets her heart broken and Taylor decides to reach out. You watch as the two of them navigate the awkwardness that comes with talking for the first time in over a year and become best friends again. This book is told through emails, Skype calls, texts, instagram DMs, and Spotify messages and it is done so well!! Watching as they both slowly realize their feelings for each other and are convinced that the other will never feel the same way is adorable. The tension and the jealousy is so well done! Also, the Spotify playlists are INCREDIBLE!!! I had to make them into my own playlists just so I could experience what they feel and it was my best idea yet. I listen to them constantly (And so can you! I put my Spotify in the link in my bio and you should totally check them out!) ⠀
Overall, this is one of the best YA romances I've read this year. It is just so adorable and I felt like I was experiencing all of these emotions with them. I will definitely be reading this book again!!⠀
