In the history of reviewing books
for this blog (almost 500 books have been reviewed), I’m 99.99% positive I have
never read a book with the main character being named Lindsey. Which is my name
(see my signature?). In reading “Worth the Wait”, the first book in this
series, I was a little annoyed that the mean girl’s name was Lindsey. I was
really hoping her story (and why she’s so mean!) would be its own book—and yay!—now
it is. Reading Lindsey’s story and past makes you see why she was so mean in
Book #1. This wasn’t an easy read because of the Sexual content, but I truly
enjoyed seeing Lindsey’s faith grow. I would not recommend this book for
everyone though, just because of the Sexual Content.
Lindsey is currently: Typing a review about a book with the main character named Lindsey and listening to Lindsey Stirling. #lindseysruletheworld
See y’all on Friday with a new
review!
