A review by anabelsbrother
Second Position by Katherine Locke
4.0
3.5 stars
oh boy oh boy oh boy
now ladies and gents there are books you devour in one sitting and then there are slow-burn type of books that you just want to savor and this book is the latter for me
did I mention I love second chance love stories?
and did I mention that Katherine Locke writes so beautifully I feel like quoting the entire book?
and did I also mention that I love how much I can relate to both Aly and Zed?
"Sometimes I feel suffocated by all the things I could have done differently in life."
Both Aly and Zed survived a horrific accident that shattered their friendship, and they were both affected by it (Zed turns to alcohol, and Aly just spirals into a mental breakdown), and I just love that their lives, living with their addictions, disabilities and mental illnesses, are portrayed realistically. I love how they take their time to figure out stuff between them, that the romance doesn't feel rushed for the sake of it, and that it wasn't the ~grand solution~.
ON TO BOOK 2 I GO
