The Upside of Falling

by Alex Light

[whisperingchapters]

Becca has locked her heart and thrown away the key. She doesn't want to know what heartbreak is. She's seen enough of it from her parent's divorce. But when she's cornered, she lies and says she's dating Brett, whom goes along for the ride. Both of them start a fake-relationship, but for it to be real, they need to spend time together. It's during these times they slowly start falling for each other.

"I can't believe I have a crush on a girl with such horrible ice cream taste."

Brett and Becca were absolutely adorable! Like I mentioned above, their relationship felt so real to me. I loved how they handled all the different aspects of dating, while also staying true to themselves.

This book also broke my heart, especially for Brett. He's going through a lot in the story, and it ends up climaxing in a way he never expected. I loved how the author maintained such an authenticity towards this situation--she kept it raw and real.

Overall, The Upside of Falling has just the right amount of fluff with emotions to keep you entertained, smiling, while also tugging at your heart-strings.
