First of all: I received an early copy of this book from Netgalley and I'm over the moon excited that I got to read this gorgeous book! It's Marci's debut and I already know I'll read her next books as well! Halfway through the book I already knew this would become one of my favorite books ever and well, it's true. It's funny, sarcastic, serious and heartwarming ... it's emotional, unbelievably sad but at the same time cute also makes you so, so happy. Seriously, I love this book with all my heart and even hugged my kindle after I was finished, it's THAT good. I immeditaley fell in love with the characters - they seemed so real and down to earth that I couldn't help but connect and feel with them. Especially Ben found a quick way into my heart and I'm sure you'll love him as much as I do ... there's seriously no other way. This kid is EVERYTHING. Such an awesome friend, very funny, motivating and with this general positive way of looking at life ... you can only be happy around him! I also really liked Maggie as our main character. She's been through a lot and at first I felt sorry for her because it's hard to lose your sight, I imagine, but she's a great person and learned from her mistakes and everything life threw at her way. She's strong and doesn't need pity from other people. I just liked her a lot and admire her for her strength. And then there's Mason ... oh my dear god. Swoon-worthy and drop dead gorgeous Mason Milton. *sigh* He's Ben's brother and the lead singer of Maggie's favorite band and ABSOLUTELY awesome! Like with (almost) every character there's so much more about them than what we first see ... that's the same for Mason. He's kind and cares so much for the people he loves. He's passionate. And well, he sings. In a band. I mean, that alone is already awesome but damnit. I totally understand why people fell in love with him, I'd be no different! The storyline is amazing and I adored every little thing about it. It's a little mysterious and leaves you wondering about the why's and how's of everything and there was not even one moment of boredom. None. Marci's humor is great and I caught myself laughing out loud a few times but she's also incredibly talented when it comes to writing emotional and serious scenes. Yes, I cried. It wasn't pretty and my feelings were all over the place but it was totally worth it because her writing is brilliant and so, so easy to read! I liked that a lot! Overall, I just want to recommend this book to EVERYONE because I loved it so much! I don't even want to let go of these great characters and the awesome time I had with them. Honestly, I wouldn't mind to read a little more about them but I knooow it's a stand-alone so yeah. Let me just tell you, that it's definitely worth your time and a really, really good book that easily became one of my favorites and I have no doubt it could be the same for you! Just give it a try! www.aworldbetweenfoldedpages.blogspot.com _________________ August 8th, 2015 One word: EPIC. I totally recommend EVERYONE reading this masterpiece! It's definitely worth it! ♥
