The Falling in Love Montage
by Ciara Smyth
I enjoyed this one so much!!!
It was refreshing in so many ways.
First of all, it's a lesbian rom com in a book : it has a lot of fun, some girls falling in love, but also a whole lot of heart and seriously moving aspects to it.
The main character felt more 'real' than a lot of other YA contemporary main characters.. by being full of imperfections.
She makes mistakes, doesn't always have the best morals, but she learns.
She grows.
And let's be honest, it felt refreshingly nice to just have lesbians go on dates, talk about (lesbian and non-)romance movies, and simply fall in love, without it being a coming-out story. It's not even a book that focuses so much on the romance.
It's a book about the fear of the future, of illness, about being a carer for family, about moving on and accepting that you get multiple friends, family members, lovers, over the course of your life. And you've just got to enjoy it.
And bonus refreshingness(not a word? who cares?): IRISH!!
It. Just. Felt. Soooo goooood to read this story.
Thank you Ciara Smyth.
