Once Upon an Ever After

Briar's Reviews

This memoir about Angeli and her long distance Southern boyfriend Vincent is an amazing read. I wasn't sure about how much sense it would make to me, considering that this is a side novel to the original Once Upon a Road Trip (that I hadn't read). Surprisingly, this novel was easy to follow and I didn't need to read the first book (but I would really like to now!). 

Kooky best friends, sneaking out to stay together and relationship woes are all featured in this book, and portray what a real relationship looks like: not perfection. This memoir made me fall in love with this love story, and felt very real and not fake (like some fiction novels make love and relationships out to be).

I would love to hear more about Anjeli and Vincent! The story telling is wonderful and doesn't make you question what's going on. It seemed very real and not forced. It was a believable story.

If anything, the author could have included more "action", or situations the characters went through. I felt cheated for more interaction between Vincent, Anjeli and her family and friends. The story seemed a bit to short for me, but still great (since this isn't the main novel about Vincent and Anjeli, and more of a set of side stories).

I did like this novel! But I wanted a bit more out of it. Overall, it was a good read I would recommend to others!

Four out of five stars!

I received this book for free through Goodreads First Reads.

Also I loved that my copy was signed! I love signed copies!
