The Chocolate Comeback by Roxanne Snopek
5.0
Thanks to NetGalley, the publisher and the author for providing me with a free ecopy of this book in exchange for a free and honest review!
Any of you ever read a book and it was just exactly what you needed?
Because this book was that for me!!
The perfect mixture of short, sweet, cute, romance, chocolate love, diverse characters that are NOT treated as if it's the worst thing to be different, beautifully cute characters and great writing!
I loved DeeDee and what she overcame but at the same time stayed true to her character.
I loved mark, the little brother with Down Syndrom that felt very realistic to me and I loved how his character was build and supported throughout this story.
Isaac... the male lead, the big btirher, the guy that took me a little while to get used to but he wasn't so real life in Many aspects that at the end I loved him even more for it!
One of the biggest things I love about this series and this book is how there is this cast of characters, all from different situations, all in different places but they all work together.
And i love how different diversity factors are brought into this series by including side characters that have some kind of special need. But I think never feels forced or as if it is not exactly as it should be to include that character with those needs at that moment.
In this book especially I loved how DeeDee and marks relationship too first lead for most of the book! It gave all characters so much and added so much to the story and I loved how DeeDee and many other people treated mark!
And I also loved that the author didn't romanticize Down Syndrom!
She showed the hard and the lighter moments, she gave the view into how most people treat those with special need she and the other side of how people should and can treat special needs. And it just works.
It fits and feels natural.
Because not everyone accepts or wants to accept or accommodate special needs, some people can hardly handle people that's understand social cues let alone this experience that don't. So to me it makes perfect sense to include them in this kind of book, especially since the author didn't try to paint them as the bad guys, but simple shown those because that it's just how it is.
This story just fits, it clicks, it works...
It's a wondeful story, it's a great cute romance book and deserves all the readers, so go read it!
