I absolutely adore magical realism & Wish I Were Here was such a fun & difference concept.

Luca is my new book boyfriend - I’m a sucker for tattoos and I absolutely adored his positivity & caring nature. And the chemistry between Catherine & Luca!!! It was just absolutely perfect. They felt like complete opposites who just fit together & complemented each other so perfectly.

I love how Melissa Wiesner creates her side characters to be as memorable & important as her main characters. I love how her story telling is full of a wide range of emotions and the characters feel so real - flaws & all.

This is one book that I absolutely wish I could read again and again, experiencing it for the first time every time.

Thank you so much to Forever and NetGalley for the e-Arc, in exchange for my honest review. And thank you to Melissa Wiesner for letting me be on a traveling ARC team. I loved being able to annotate this book.

A BILLION STARS.
