Review: Save One Thing by Julia Wolf

Save One Thing by Julia Wolf
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I received this free eARC novel from Valentine PR.  This is my honest review. 

This is my first Julia Wolf novel and I got sucked into this story immediately!  I'm very glad I got intrigued by the synopsis and decided to dive into it because I really enjoyed it. 

The best thing that I loved about this book is probably not what everyone else loves about it.  I mean, I loved more than one thing, but the best?  The realism shown in the relationship between Luciana and her mother.  And how it doesn't make sense why Luc would keep going back for more, but she DOES because she WANTS to because she's her mother.  It's such a hard thing for others who are not in the mix cannot understand, especially for a teenager who wants to be around her mom.  And that was so realistic and hard hitting for me. 

On a lighter note, I loved Luciana and Beckett together.  Speaking of realism and realistic, the way Beckett acted when they first met?  And Luc's reaction to it?  So true for people who are tongue tied and stunned speechless!  You just never know how one will respond when you are presented with something that just totally shocks you. 

I was truly surprised by Beckett's intensity throughout this book and how strong it kept getting.  That's all I'll say to not spoil anything, but the boy that Luc met on that first day and Beckett finally going after what he's wanted for years?  Ya'll, just be prepared to get swooned by some of the amazing things he says!

I'm so so interested in seeing if the author will do the other characters stories in their group, because I need to see Ev.  She just fascinates me to no end on her social standards and seeing someone sneak into her bubble would be fantastic!

I'm definitely keeping my eye out for more Julia Wolf, and if I ever get caught up on all of my backlog books, I'll definitely look at her backlist of books to catch up on!
