knitplanjess 's review for:

You, with a View by Jessica Joyce
5.0

Noelle has learned a secret about her late Gram and now she's on a road trip adventure to learn the story of her lost love. Along the way, is her high school nemesis, Theo, and his grandfather, Paul - who also happens to be her Gram's lost love.

During the road trip, she expects to learn her Gram's story but doesn't expect to find herself again, a new career path, and the love of her life.

I can't express how much I loved this book from debut author, Jessica Joyce. The characters were funny, relatable, emotional. They had visible growth & development through the story. Jessica Joyce's writing made me feel like I was there, experiencing the adventure with them. And the ending? I was bawling, wrecked, I had to literally compose myself in order to finish reading. She wrote the experience of grief so beautifully that it was perfection.

One book and she's an auto-buy author for me and I can't wait to read more from her.

HUGE thank you to NetGalley and Berkley for this ARC in exchange for my honest review.
