Queen B’s Decree: Talia Hibbert has been on both my and Queen J’s “to-read” list for a while. When I got notification that I would be receiving a copy of Act Your Age, Eve Brown, I mildly panicked. I hadn’t read the previous in the series, Get a Life, Chloe Brown nor Take a Hint, Dani Brown. Read a series out of order?
Who do you think you are talking to? Not this list-making, anal retentive Queen.
And so I quickly binged Chloe and Dani. And I enjoyed them, but I didn’t really fall in love with Chloe or Dani as characters.
But Eve…oh Eve and her Jacob are one of the best things I’ve read in 2021 thus far. This story just made me so happy. It brought about so many emotions: happiness, laughter, sadness, a tinge of obsession.
The author did such a wonderful job describing autism and how it can present so differently. It’s no surprise I love characters that are neurodiverent, so a grumpy Hero that also is a little different? My kryptonite.
Act Your Age was such a happy and joyful book, even when it’s discussing difficult and emotional topics. One of, if not the best book I’ve read in 2021 thus far.
