Vanessa ♛Queen Alchemy ϟ Novel Nerd Faction♛'s Reviews > The Replacement Crush

This is such a glorious book! I'm telling you, it has all the feels packed into an adorable little package. I can't believe that this has been sitting on my kindle for the past two years and I never got around to reading it before now. This book is bookworm gold.

Okay, so reading books out of order isn't typically my thing. A few days ago I decided to read The Bookworm Crush, since it has been marketed as a spinoff and not part of a series, and I loved the ever-loving pieces out of it. As soon as I finished the book, probably before I ever finished it if I'm being honest, I -knew- that I -had- to read The Replacement Crush. Before the ink of my book review for The Bookworm Crush was even dry, I started reading this bad boy. Heck, am I ever glad that I did!

First of all, I have such an appreciation for this author's writing style. The writing is seamless with an effortless flow that draws the reader in. I love the author's voice. I also love that the author's writing reflects the target audience of the book. If this book blew me away, I can't even imagine the epic feels that a young adult would have reading this.

When I read The Bookworm Crush, I fell madly in love with the characters. The author has a surefire way of building excellent relationships in the stories that she tells. The characters truly have meaningful connections. The character development is so very impressive. These characters will get into your head and into your heart while you read their story. They all have such wonderful depth. You really get to know these characters intimately through the writing. I think that is why the story as a whole is so impactful for the reader. The characters are just the bee's knees.

One of the things that I loved best about this book was the romantic chemistry between the two main characters. They had an electric connection that simmered and shook the reader where it counts. Their banter was fiery and kept a smile on my face for the entire book.

The overall plot of the story was executed well. I liked all the foreshadowing and little tidbits that the author accumulated over the course of the book to make the whole thing dazzle.

Another thing that I liked about this book was how the author addressed more sensitive issues. I liked that the author kept them relevant to the target audience and also handled these issues with grace. Some of the issues that I took note of were consent, slut-shaming, and sexual and physical assault.

Overall, this book was a whopping pile of win. I adored this book just as much as The Bookworm Crush. I honestly don't think that I could pick between the two. They are both very special books. For now, I will preach to anyone that will listen of the glorious nature of these two books and I will be keeping this author on my radar in the foreseeable future. This book deserves all the love!
