Small Blue Thing by S.C. Ransom
4.0
This is the second time I've read this book and I don't know whether it is because I've already read this book or because I'm older than I was when I first read this book but for some reason I didn't enjoy it as much as I did the first time around. When I read SBT for the first time I absolutely loved it but on my second reading it doesn't seem quite so brilliant.
Parts of the story are incredibly cheesy and would never happen in real life (I know that it is fiction and you would never find a bracelet that could let you talk to the dead but still some of the romance was just too much for me). Alex and Callum were declaring their love for each other when they had only just met a few days ago, that just wouldn't happen in real life.
However I love the characters and the chemistry between them, you can tell that S C Ransom put a lot of throughout into them, even the minor characters. While I'm not a big fan of some of the cheesier scenes I still love the book and the story, and the cover is absolutely gorgeous.
