Charmingly sweet and fun, [a:Victoria Schwab|3099544|Victoria Schwab|https://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/authors/1336685438p2/3099544.jpg] introduces middle grader's to her phenomenal writing and storytelling. Guys, for a middle grade book, this is chalk full of so many FEELS! So, I was super excited when I got the chance to read an advanced copy of this for review. I mean, it's[a:Victoria Schwab|3099544|Victoria Schwab|https://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/authors/1336685438p2/3099544.jpg] how could you NOT want to read this?!

Fun, cute, sweet, and sassy this is a book that will pull you in from the beginning and keep you entertained all the way through. Aria is a magical character that is super easy to connect with, likeable, and full of so much sass and spunk that it's hard not to fall in love with her. My heart went out to Gabby, I wanted to reach through the pages and hug her tight, but one of the best things about this novel is the hopeful message and the courage that the story possessed. [a:Victoria Schwab|3099544|Victoria Schwab|https://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/authors/1336685438p2/3099544.jpg] wrote Gabby in such a way that she was a pillar of silent strength throughout this book and a symbolism of hope. Aria is a wonderful character for middle grader's who need to be reminded that it's okay to just put yourself out there and take chances, the way Aria did.

The story is wonderfully written and full of beautiful emotion that will captivate anyone who decides to pick it up. If you enjoy unforgettable characters that are charming, sweet, and full of amazing qualities then you will really enjoy this book. [a:Victoria Schwab|3099544|Victoria Schwab|https://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/authors/1336685438p2/3099544.jpg] once again shows me exactly why I love her brilliant writing style and keep coming back to her books time and time again. She is always at the top of my auto-buy list. I'll definitely be picking up my own copy.Truly heart-warming and amazing, this is a book that you do not want to miss out on, so I urge you to pick up a copy as it will truly tug at your heart strings.

Note: Full review coming soon, within the upcoming week. I received this an ARC of this book for review through Around the World ARC Tours in exchange for an honest and fair review.
