This brightly coloured book was at the bottom of my first Illumincrate (review coming soon) and at a loose end for something to read, despite my endless TBR pile, I picked it up.
I was hooked on the story of Vivi and Jonah’s summer in the idyllic Californian coastal town of Verona Cove.
Jonah’s dad died six months ago and his mum’s not coping, while he and his siblings try to pull together despite their own grief.
Vivi and her artist mum have moved to the town for the summer following Vivi’s own annus horribilis.
When they meet one morning sparks fly and Vivi’s vibrant brand of fun lights up Jonah’s life.
This book has a lot of heart and more going on underneath than the rainbow cover suggests.
Despite my age, YA lit is something I often dip into, there’s some fantastic writing going on in there.
Have you read When We Collided? What did you think? Let me know in the comments below.
