Just Visiting

Dahlia Adler

Enjoyment: Quality: Characters: Plot:

Reagan Forrester wants out—out of her trailer park, out of reach of her freeloading mother, and out of the shadow of the relationship that made her the pariah of Charytan, Kansas. Victoria Reyes wants in—in to a fashion design program, in to the arms of a cute guy who doesn’t go to Charytan High, and in to a city where she won’t stand out for being Mexican. One thing the polar-opposite best friends do agree on is that wherever they go, they’re staying together. But when they set off on a series of college visits at the start of their senior year, they quickly see that the future doesn’t look quite like they expected. After two years of near-solitude following the betrayal of the ex-boyfriend who broke her heart, Reagan falls hard and fast for a Battlestar Galactica-loving, brilliant smile-sporting pre-med prospective…only to learn she’s set herself up for heartbreak all over again. Meanwhile, Victoria runs full-speed toward all the things she thinks she wants…only to realize everything she’s looking for might be in the very place they’ve sworn to leave. As both Reagan and Victoria struggle to learn who they are and what they want in the present, they discover just how much they don’t know about each other’s pasts. And when each learns what the other’s been hiding, they’ll have to decide whether their friendship has a future.

    yay i loved this book! i love everything i read of Dahlia’s!! 

    i’m seeing her at a panel so i wanted to have something new under my belt, and what a good choice 😍

    Reagan and Vic’s strong and steadfast relationship reminded me of my relationship with my best friend. best friends are one and only!!! my heart ached when they started to struggle with how much they shared with each other, but i was so happy with how it was all resolved. 

    girlies with trauma!! girlies growing up unsure of their futures!!

    i was rooting for Reagan and Dev the s e c o n d they met. i loved their chemistry and the ease in which they grew into their feelings for each other. i audibly cheered when they finally kissed!!

    and i was so happy that Vic decided to put herself first and make choices that would suit her!! friendships don’t have to suffer because the two friends want different things!!

    i loved it, def check it out ❤️
