Reviews with content warning for Infertility - Malibu Rising

An amazing story showing that family it's doesn't have to share the same blood more like likely always been for each other and love each other unconditionally. How love can have many different faces, some of them are amazing like taking care of not your child like it was born from you, and becoming parent. Being bad perent wanting to fix that, falling love in with someone, but still cheating that person knowing it will destroy them. Not wanting to put yourself first because of being scared. Or just finding a family that you always want to have. Such an amazing story with so much depth in it. Very much enjoy it.

surprise, surprise, i’m giving another taylor jenkins reid book five stars. i know, i’m so predictable. daisy jones and the six was the first book that i picked up written by taylor and i’m now in love with every book i own of hers.
firstly, i absolutely love how the events of the book all is wrapped up in one day (with the exception of the flashbacks). i like medium/fast paced books so this definitely was the one for me. i actually started reading malibu rising because the secret history was being too slow for me and i needed to read something else before i fell into a book slump.
for the characters, i am so in love with each and everyone of them (except mick, fuck you. you know what you did.) i am especially in love with june and the way she was talked about by her children made me tear up about every single time. yes, she had flaws and she knew that but they were because of mick’s actions and i hate him for that. nina-baby, you deserve the world and more (also, fuck you brandon). the way she was so selfless to care for her siblings after her mother’s death and even before it makes nina so lovable. nina had been put through so much (as so did all the other siblings) and i hope she’s living her best life in portugal.
i also want to mention that tjr’s books all being in the same universe is literally my favorite thing ever. seeing mentions of people from daisy homes and the six and evelyn hugo lights up my face.

After the disappointment that was Daisy Jones & The Six for me, I have restored my faith in Taylor Jenkins Reid. I had so much fun reading this, especially towards the middle/ending of the book.
