Můj život u sousedů by Huntley Fitzpatrick

4.0

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It's a great lighthearted and fun book throughout the majority of it and I found myself grinning on multiple occasions, the characters are so well written and the whole Garrett family stole my heart. I often find myself hating main female characters because they're portrayed as whiny and helpless but Sam was the total opposite. I could understand her struggle dealing with her mom and her mom's new boyfriend and she handled everything very maturely for being a 17 year old.

My only grievance was that the end felt a little rushed. The timing in the beginning is perfect, it's more of a slow paced journey getting to know the characters and I adored it. But the ending was a bit abrupt. I was so incredibly angry for a while, just feeling Sam's frustration, and even as I'm writing this it still hasn't totally gone away. I would have loved to know more about what happens to the characters after, like if an epilogue was included and wrapped everything up, but unfortunately there wasn't so I was left with my imagination. That would be perfect if I was a fan of open-ended novels, but I prefer a sense of conclusion.

All in all, this was a very fun read and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fun romance and it will definitely be on my list of favorites for a long time.
