REVIEW:
"How many times do I have to tell you, Jules? I’m into you. Whether it’s in letter form, cookie form, pole dancing form, sitting in your sweats on the couch watching TV form, or any other way you want to show me what you’re all about, I’m here for it. I’m here for you."
This is one of my highly anticipated reads for the year and Maya Hughes did not disappoint! Right off the bat, the premise is just so unique - anonymous dirty letters? Love that. From where The Second We Met left off, Berk was very determined to find out who The Letter Girl is and has enlisted help from Jules, completely oblivious that she’s TLG herself.
I found that Berk and Jules are characters you easily fall inlove with individually and together. Their relationship is just the purest thing. Even at the start just as friends, up to watching their relationship unfold. You can just tell their feelings are truly genuine. I love that they helped each other overcome the struggles they’re dealing with.
In The Perfect First and The Second We Met, we got to see Berk as someone who is very outgoing - he also described himself as the little brother in their friend group. Jules is the resident baker, pole dancer, and The Letter Girl herself. She’s also really selfless and is the absolute sweetest.
What I love is that they both have issues they deal with on their own which make it easier to connect with them. Jules is struggling with her self-confidence. The way her family treated her all those years broke my heart so much. I loved seeing her overcome those struggles, learn to love herself, and put herself first.
Berk struggles with his past - what he went through and how it still affects him now. My heart just goes out to him. Reading his POV and finding out why he acts the way he does had my heartbreaking too.
I’m just so glad now they both have these amazing people in their life who loves them and wants the best for them - something they didn't get a lot of (but definitely deserved) while growing up.
It was also a plus to see Avery, Max, and Emmett (from Kings of Rittenhouse) again! I especially loved what Emmett said to Berk, that deserves a special mention. And that tease at the end - I can’t wait for Marisa & LJ’s book!
