The Roads We Follow by Nicole Deese

5.0

I’ve loved all of Nicole Deese’s books but The Roads We Follow is now my favorite! This book was amazing! It was deeply emotional, fun, and inspiring all at once. It was my kind of book.❤️

First of all, I absolutely loved the main characters in this story from the start!
I liked Raegan from the start. I loved her kind and compassionate character as well as her desire to help those around her. I also found her really relatable! She’s the kind of MC I’d love to be friends with. 
And I loved Micah’s character so, so much! He was so kind, patient, and steady. He was just an all-around good guy. I loved that he wasn’t perfect but he was striving to be the best man he could be. He’s honestly one of the best male main characters I’ve read in a while. I loved his desire to see and hear people. It was really interesting reading about a therapist. 

The romance was one of the sweetest I have read in a long time! I absolutely loved the deep conversations Raegan and Micah had throughout this book and watching their friendship grow into more. They were perfect for each other. I also loved their banter. I laughed several times throughout this book.❤️

I loved that this book is primarily set in the south! As a southern girl myself, it was really fun to read about a country music star. I also loved all the summer road trip vibes so much!

One of my favorite things in this book was the family dynamics between Raegan and her sisters and mom. This book truly centers around family and friendship which I always enjoy. 

The faith in this book was definitely the highlight of this book for me. It was woven in so beautifully and was such an integral part of the story. It was beautiful and inspiring!

In conclusion, I absolutely loved this book! It was so beautiful! Nicole Deese is such a talented writer who writes stories with heart in them. If you’re looking for a book that’ll make you laugh and cry that centers around family and faith, this one was incredible and so worth the read.❤️
