Borrow My Heart

Kasie West

Enjoyment: Quality: Characters: Plot:

When a girl overhears a guy getting verbally destroyed by his friends for being catfished, she jumps in to save the day—and pretends to be his online crush. Wren is used to being called a control freak. She doesn’t care; sticking to the list of rules she created for herself helps her navigate life. But when a cute guy named Asher walks through the door of her neighborhood coffee shop, the rulebook goes out the window. Asher is cute, charming... and being catfished by his online crush. So Wren makes an uncharacteristically impulsive decision—she pretends to be the girl he's waiting for to save him from embarrassment. Suddenly she’s fake-dating a boy she knows nothing about. And it’s... amazing. It's not long before Asher has her breaking even more of her own rules. But will he forgive her when he finds out she's not who she says she is? Wren's not so sure... After all, rules exist for a reason.

    The book is both light-hearted & deep without shoving a “lesson” down your throat. The story can both make the reader smile, but also empathize with the family/relationship issues presented. The book is pretty fast-paced and can be read quickly. The ease of which I read this book did not detract from how much I liked it. It flowed nicely and smoothly to create a perfectly created coming-of-age story of love, growth, and self-awareness. Again, the plot/storyline of the book was highly relatable. While I enjoy PNRs and fantastical stories, it was a comfort to read a book that was realistic, one I could see myself staring in when I was that age. A girl who works at an animal shelter, catfishing, and a boy who is nerdy AND charming? Sign me up!
