4.5 "Let it all out" stars!!

This will be a fairly quick review because I'm still buzzing over this book and I don't want to accidentally reveal too much.

This story is about four people: Hollyn, Jace, Daisy and Carter. It's also told from each of their points of view, so we get an in-depth look at what's going on. Each person has been dealt a hard knock or two from life. They each find themselves at the end of their ropes. Defeated. Lost. The Dear Life program forces each of them to grab life by its horns, embrace it, own it, and best of all, to live it!

In all honesty, all of the characters added their own sort of depth to the plot, but my favorite was Jace. He embodied every positive characteristic that I could possibly think of. He was kind, considerate, patient, understanding, compassionate, nonjudgmental, intelligent, humble, etc. He was really pretty amazing. I loved him so much!

My only disappointment with this book, why I docked half a star, is that I wanted to see more of these people. I wanted more of a HEA. But that's just me and the HFNs they received were still sweet.

I think what touched me the most in this book was what happened at the very end. The author wrote her own letter and it really pulled at my heartstrings. I definitely teared up while reading it. Can't lie. It practically tore my heart open because it was REAL! I admired not only her honest story, but also her bravery in sharing it.
