Another amazing book by Kasie West. I really enjoyed Autumn and Dax as main characters. It was so fun and interesting to see what they do while stuck in the library! At first I was skeptical of this plot point but I loved it (and Autumn + Dax together) when I actually read it. I wish we’ve could’ve had more scenes from them as an official couple!
Autumn has anxiety and takes medication for it. I immediately connected with her because of this. I felt so seen and heard, which is was really special. I’m so appreciative and happy that Kasie included this type of mental health representation. She wrote it in such a positive and respectful way. Dax’s unstable home life situation was emotional and added depth to the story.
I highly recommend By Your Side and I’m so glad that I picked it up at a used bookstore!

Quick cute read that’s predictable and easy to follow along. Kind of slow but it was a good book. I love reading books from this author!
