Evening Stars by Susan Mallery

4.0

I received this book as an advanced reader copy and I was so excited to learn that I had won one of the 4 copies available! I love Susan Mallery and I have devoured every book I could get a hold of that she has written. Ironically just prior to receiving this book in the mail I had started reading Three Sisters and was enjoying the journey those characters were taking me on. Needless to say that upon starting Evening Stars and learning that I could get little updates on the characters from the first book had me totally excited while still eager to take the journey Nina was in store for. I think that in good books you can love and dislike certain characters and still love the book. That is the case for me as I found Bonnie to be irritating and immature. Naturally that was the way her character was designed but I found myself wanting to smack her for her behavior as well as Averil's behavior at times. That said it lent certain points to the story and I wouldn't change it because I did enjoy this book. I enjoyed Kyle and Dylan and Nina and Bertie and all of the other supporting characters that were instrumental in this book. There was a path that had to be taken to get to the ending and I think it was well written and certainly heartwarming with the extra little tidbit of updates for my favorite characters from the last book. I would totally recommend this to my friends!
