Blowin' My Mind Like a Summer Breeze by Benjamin Roesch
5.0
Summary: Rainey Cobb has spent most of her life traveling with her family band, led by her rock star parents. She didn't expect that in the summer of 1995, she would meet a girl named Juliet who changes how she sees herself and the world. Now questions lie before her - who does she want to be? Will she stay in the family band or try to create a life for herself?
Rainey Cobb reminds me a lot of myself at 15. Trying to find herself, writing songs as self-expression, creating lists to cope... She was such a sweet and relatable character.
I absolutely loved watching her journey to navigate parental expectations, work through family mental health problems, explore her sexual identity, and try to accept who she is.
It was such a quick and "breezy" read, and the audiobook was spectacular. I typically have trouble focusing on audiobooks, but not this one!
Thank you to the author for the free copy to review. Rainey will always be in my heart!
