Drive Me Crazy by Leaona Luxx
3.0
Thank you BookSprout and Leaona Luxx for an ARC in exchange for an honest review!
WHAT I LIKED:
This book has a great storyline! Two high school crushes that have a falling out and don't find each other again until they are older is probably one of the most sought after tropes.. with having Harper go through such a horrible life until she finds Ridge again makes this the perfect love story. I was holding my breath reading about the hell that Harper was going through. I cheered her on when she packed up and left. I even had tears in my eyes when Ridges found out her biggest secret. This book is an emotional ride.
WHAT I DIDN'T LIKE:
There were parts of this that bothered me and made it difficult to read to the point where I would have to slow down and re-read it just to try and determine which character was speaking. There were also A LOT of people mentioned throughout this book, but it doesn't mention who her twin brother is until closer to the end. It also doesn't state what "One's" real name is until closer to the end. That name or nickname, threw me off more than once as it is just so odd.. The amount these two love each other is perfectly written, but the stupid circles they would go in about how "I'm not good enough for her" or "he'll never love me" is seriously annoying. Life has struggles, it gets hard and we all have doubts. I get it. But they had a "talk" to clear the air more than once and it still help either of them.
OVERALL / RECOMMENDATIONS:
I did enjoy this book. It is a simple love story showing that no matter what, family and friends will always be there when you need them to be. I would recommend this book to readers who enjoy a cute high school romance troupe.
