I have to say that while reading the first chapter, I already have an idea that I will like this one, and I was right. I love the writing style of the author and I also love that there’s no frustrating and annoying scenes (unless you include Tamara’s cunning and b*tchy behaviour).
I don’t make it a secret that I’m a fan of Japan – from anime, music, culture, the people and the country as a whole. I’m not really sure when my fascination to Japan started but lately, I had this unrelenting desire to learn more about Japan, especially their language.
But seriously, I love that I instantly got hooked with this story and was curious what’s the case Ronnie is going to take this time. Oh, by the way, Ronnie was the heroine from the previous book that I’ve read, Searching for Gatsby. And back then, I’m already eyeing her character because she’s the most badass 50 year old character I’ve ever read.
After reading Kelly Oram’s Happily Ever After, I expected that it would take a lot of convincing for the next romance story for me to enjoy it, let alone love it. But surprise, surprise! Modern Love did just that, and it was as early as its first chapter.
Once in a while, I do enjoy indulging in good middle grade fantasy books. So when I was offered by the good author, Colm McElwain with his first book, James Clyde and the Diamonds of Orchestra, I was curious.
