Hello everyone!! Happy Friday!!
Today I work night shift, which means at least I have all the day to read and hopefully write a few of my pending reviews! I've been doing rather hopelessly at review writing these past days!
To start this week's Friday Reads I have one of this week's releases, a novella, but one of the long ones, and one that I kept on hoping it would have been even longer! I wish Paula would have got to write a full book on Micah's POV!!
Infinite Repeat by Paula Stokes
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Paula has done it again! *sniffles* I was really looking forward to reading this story from Micah's POV but I wasn't really sure what to expect from it, but I'm very happy to say that she managed to make me wish it would have been way longer, to understand and love Micah even more and to love Trinity, Micah's little sister even more! Dammit, I'm even wishing she'd get her own book now!!
Infinite Repeat takes place before the events of The Art of Lainey, leads us through Micah's struggle to deal with the changes in his relationship with Amber, his guilt over his father's death, with some flashbacks to some examples of how badly Micah had been dealing with it in each of the death's anniversaries.
We also get to see some of Micah's time at work, we get another look at his love for cooking and baking (devil's food cake with light and dark chocolate mousse, YES PLEASE!!), and we also see Lainey through his eyes as the popular girl that works at her parents' cafe, and that was quite an interesting alternate way to see her too.
I absolutely loved how Paula managed to balance the tough emotional parts of Micah's story, with amazing family moments, showing his love of music and still inserting her trademark humour!
A wonderful novella that I would have loved more only if it would have been longer! I'm gonna be rooting for more pages about this characters somehow! Well deserved 5 stars!

Aw, great review Pili :) I'm so glad you loved this book. <3 Micah sounds adorable. I have not read book one, and I'm still not sure if I'm going to :p Maybe one day. <3 So glad you loved them both, though :)
ReplyDeleteThank you sweetie!!
DeleteOooo. I have to get this novella. Usually I don't bother with novellas because they're kind of a waste of time (in my opinion), but I SO enjoyed Micah ;D I'll have to get this one! I'm glad you loved Infinite Repeat, Pili :)
ReplyDeleteFantastic review!!
Alyssa @ The Eater of Books!

DeleteHonestly, I didn't even know about this, but I have The Art of Lainey on my wishlist, so I'm adding this one too ;) Glad you loved it, Pili!
ReplyDeleteI hope you get to read Lainey and this one soon, Jessica!
