"Trust me to chase your monsters away." - Oz to Emily

I remember hearing Katie McGarry talk about this book at a con, and knew I would want to read it. I love that McGarry gives me a window into a world that is a somewhat normal, but a little grittier than I am accustomed to. This is a story of the prodigal MC princess, Emily, (unbeknownst to her) and an aspiring MC, Oz, who had grown up in that world. I really liked how McGarry presented the two worlds. She showed that they were different, at first glance, but underneath, it really was about family, love, and respect. The romance between Emily and Oz was very sweet, and unfolded slowly. As their feelings evolved, so did Emily and Oz. In the end, they both realized that what they had changed, and so did what they wanted. There were a lot of great characters in the story, and yeah!, the parents were actually "present" in the youngsters lives. There were quite a few really touching moments, and a few scary ones too, that combined with all the swoony, sexy stuff left me throughly entertained. I am very much looking forward to getting to know more of the Snowflake crew.
