Another win from Ms. Williams!! Denise has easily become one of my favorite writers- her books rarely miss and are always so entertaining. The Fastest Way to Fall was no exception, y'all. 

I think what I love the most from Denise's books is how much plot and character development goes into her stories. I hate to admit it, but sometimes rom-com's can be a little boring and predictable to read if the author doesn't include a gripping plot to match the romance, ya know? But with Denise Williams' books, you can always expect the perfect balance of character development, attraction, a little bit of spice, and a great plot to tie it all together. It makes for an excellent reading experience every single time! 

Some other things to love: the fact that the author included content warnings in a personal note in the beginning of the book and some resources at the end of the book if a reader is struggling. I deeply appreciated that! Also, has super short chapters that made me feel like I was flying through this book, despite that it's nearly 400 pages. A wonderful touch! This book covered a lot of deep and traumatic topics that I just know will be cathartic to readers. It did it in a way that was hopeful and respectful but doesn't shy away from the very real effects of these issues. I appreciated that more than words can say. 

I hope I was able to convey just how much I adored this book. I think it should be on the top of all rom-com lovers TBR (as well as her other books)! And even if you aren't a die hard romance reader, you should still find a way to incorporate this book into your reading list. It's worth it!
