A review by lunarelle
Reactive by Becky Moynihan
5.0
I hadn't anticipated this book. Despite my soul-sister recommending it to me, I delved into it with some apprehension, as I've been disappointed by a lot of books over the past couple of years: more finished on my DNF pile than in my read pile.
But this one, no. This one kept me going. Despite wanting to stay detached, I found myself more and more immersed in the story and wanting to know what happened with Lune.
She's a good character, written in such a way that you're able to identify with her. I may no longer be eighteen, but I remember what I was like back then, and her reactions were on point: not too adult, but not entirely childish, either. The author struck a good balance between the two, and I enjoyed it.
As for the plot, it's a good one. Easy to follow, yet not so simple as to bore you. I somewhat anticipated the ending, but that only makes me want to read the next book--which I'm just about to do. I just wanted to leave a small review here.
All in all, 4.75 stars: I was very happy with it.
And now, on to the next book!
