A review by mells_view
Pieces of Me by Jay McLean

emotional funny hopeful inspiring reflective sad tense medium-paced

5.0

This is the fault in our fate, our one undoing: All he’s ever wanted is my happiness, even when it costs him his own.


First, anyone not reading this duet is MISSING OUT on one hell of a story. Second, Pieces of Me is FREAKING AMAZING. I spent 70% of this book crying tears of sadness, anger, and happiness. Then I spent a healthy 10% wanting to punch people and the other 20% I was smiling my face off. But 100% of the time I was obsessed and thinking how perfect this story is for these two characters. Even the hard parts had their place and their purpose and Jay weaved it all together so so well.

JamieHolden go through so so much. A rollercoaster of emotions as per usual. Bumpy and unpredictable, but always worth the ride in the end. These characters and their growth. Their pain. Their heartache. Their love. Their care for one another. Holden’s heart. Jamie’s strength. I can’t. I loved this book so so hard. Plus all the side characters. Jay does found family and different family dynamics with such care.

I honestly never wanted it to end. Ever. I could live in the worlds that Jay creates. Every angsty part of them.

Anyway. Get hip and start this series now. This book comes out January 25th, but Pieces of You is available now, so READ IT!

AVAILABLE JANUARY 25th!
