The Absence of Olivia by Anie Michael


One of the bloggers that I follow was reading this book. So I decided to join the band wagon and started reading it. I was a bit hesitant at first, well because of the description.

"My name is Evelyn. I met Devon and instantly fell for him. Weeks later he fell for my best friend. Never one to make waves, I watched as they started a life together. I stood by as their family grew, was the maid of honor at their wedding and the godmother to their children. All the while, I was longing for him, watching as he became the perfect husband and father. I was never jealous. I wasn't even angry that my best friend had the only person I wanted..." 

Don't get me wrong, I'm all for 2nd Chance Love Stories. But this was something else. I was mad. At the writer, at the characters, at the story line. I was mad at everything. 

All in all, I did enjoy the book. It evoked certain emotions from me, which is what I like in a book. Evelyn made me proud. I was glad that she was able to look out for herself first and then everyone else. And the fact that she was able to find a love that was worth it, was amazing.
