This is my third Taylor Jenkins Reid novel, and this book has only proven that I will never stop idolizing this wonderful author.
At first, I had my trepidations due to the fact that this was more plain story oriented rather than interview styled like the other two books of hers I have read, but I was just as engrossed and excited reading this one.
In Malibu Rising, TJR comes at us with a wonderful and compelling cast of characters, and a sibling story that will make you just as sad as it will happy throughout the pages.
Halfway through the book, I had stopped counting how many times I had to close the book and share the crazy plot twist I had just gotten to with everyone in my life.
This book only made me more interested in “Carrie Soto Is Back” so I am totally looking forward to reading TJRs other novels and releases
In the end, I definitely recommend Malibu Rising.
