REVIEW: The Heatbreakers by Ali Novak

(Summary from Goodreads). "When I met Oliver Perry, I had no clue he was the lead singer for The Heartbreakers. Unbeknownst to him, I was the only girl in the world who hated his music."

Since Cara's health has been deteriorating, all Stella Walter can think about is trying to cheer her sister up. Her life revolves around Cara to the point where Stella drops out of one of the country's top photography programs so she can spend what little time she has left with her sick sister. 

With Cara's birthday around the corner, Stella wants to get her the perfect gift. An autographed poster of her sister's favorite boy band should do the trick. Sounds simple enough, right? But life isn't always so easy. 

Not only does Stella hate The Heartbreakers because of their terrible music, but when she realizes that the cute boy she met at Starbucks is really Oliver Perry, the lead singer of the band, her life seems to spin out of control... 

Will Stella be able to swallow her pride and get the autograph that she so desperately needs to make Cara happy? And will Oliver be able to show Stella how to live her own life again? 

Meet... The Heartbreakers.


I received a free copy of this book for an honest review.

This was a really fun book to read. It was unrealistic... because who gets to be a photographer of a guy band and fall in love with one of the members? RIGHT? Well... I'm sure it could happen to someone, but yeah. It was unrealistic.

It was a really fun read though. I loved the narration of the main character and her relationship with her brother and sister. I also really loved her relationship with the members of the band. I thought that it would be confusing to distinguish each of the members, but after a little bit you are able to get each person's personality.

The development of the story was great. I loved every minute of it...and couldn't help but laugh out loud at some of the banter between the characters.

I really liked Novak's previous book (and can't wait for the sequel to that one). I was super excited when I saw this available to read! I really like this author's writing style.

Four out of five stars.
