Blink Once - Cylin Busby

Blink Once by Cylin Busby

 

First book of March!!!
Woohoo!
I can't believe I managed to read two books in one week.

We had a snow day Wednesday, so I took advantage of that downtime to knock one off the pile.
I realllllllyyyyyy enjoyed this book.
This was one I pulled myself.
My book choosing strategy is probably not politically correct, I look at the spines, and when the spine design and font grab my attention, I pull the book and read the jacket. I base all my personal selections based on jacket summaries.

I don't read reviews that say "Great story, another fantastic blahhh blahhh blahhh" -New York Times.
What does that even mean?????
I wanna know what the dang book is about.

So back to this story, it's another mind efff like The Raft by S. A. Bodeen.
And I didn't even realize it!!! I was so disappointed in my self.

I have this tendency to pick out books about amputees, paralysis, coma and cancer patients. I'm such a sucker for a heart warming story. And I'm way past sold if it's a love story.
And this one just happened to be a paralyzed coma patient, I know right?? Such a sucker.

Short synopsis:

West wakes up from a dirt bike accident to a pretty dark haired girl named Olivia telling him he is paralyzed. With her help, he figures out how to communicate with her and his surroundings. During his stay, he falls in love with Olivia. Before he transfers hospitals to have surgery, he promises to come back for her. And here comes the mind eff, but I can't give anymore away. Because anything else I say will give away what happens, and I can't have that.
You must read this book.
It's an amazing show of love, dedication, healing, strength, trust and perseverance.

This book and West are so easy to fall in love with. I highly recommend it, and I think it's a fantastic motivational book, you know RahRahRah! you can overcome any obstacle, but in an endearing way.
