The Secret of Ella and Micha by Jessica Sorensen


After last week's disappointing snooze-fest of a book, I decided I needed something a little simpler and lighthearted this week.

There's nothing deeply profound about this book, nor is there anything that really challenges the reader - whether in its dialogue or it's style. It's overall a very simple read.

Ella and Micha have been friends since they were six years old. Now in their late teens, the book begins with a life-changing event that drastically shapes who Ella is. And while she tries to figure out just what that means, Micha decides that it's time for him to step up and be there for his best friend - and the girl he loves.

This was a sweet story. It's what I would categorize as good beach reading. Like I mentioned, nothing complex about it and was able to finish it in less than three days. It was the perfect follow-up to the nightmare that was last week's book.
