Starry Eyes by Jenn Bennett

Starry Eyes

by Jenn Bennett

From Jenn Bennett, author of Night Owls and Alex, Approximately comes a sizzling, starry romance, perfect for fans of Rainbow Rowell and John Green 

Ever since last year’s homecoming dance, best-friends-turned-worst-enemies Zorie and Lennon have made an art of avoiding each other. It doesn’t hurt that their families are the modern-day version of the Montagues and Capulets. But when a group camping trip goes south, Zorie and Lennon find themselves stranded in the wilderness. Alone. Together.

Zorie and Lennon have no choice but to try to make their way to safety. But as the two travel deeper into the rugged Californian countryside, secrets and hidden feelings surface. Soon it's not simply a matter of enduring each other’s company, but taming their growing feelings for each other.

I'm speechless. I literally don't know what to say. But that might be the book hangover talking. You know the buzz you get after you finish a particularly good book and can't think of anything else? I haven't gotten one in a while so Starry Eyes probably deserves 4.5 stars, not just 4. It was such a good read!

I absolutely loved reading about Zorie and Lennon. They were both so quirky and relatable. And even more than that, I loved watching their relationship develop and the lessons they learned along the way. That said, there's just something missing that prevents it from being a 5 star read. I can't quite put my finger on it, but maybe I'll think of it once I recover from this book hangover.
