Textrovert

"I feel like this had so much potential! But it just didn’t turn out that way... As I was reading, the writing was just all wrong. I was literally editing and putting in my own lines as I read because the way the author wrote it was honestly hard to watch... It was like the first draft, it needed more editing and more time I think. I liked it. But I would’ve loved it if those things happened. "

"Received from netgalley for an honest review.<br/><br/>https://tanyasreading.wordpress.com/2017/04/24/textrovert-by-by-lindsey-summers/<br/><br/>3.5 Stars!<br/><br/>Textrovert is a story about two strangers who accidentally switch phones and start a friendship over it. It pretty much a cute high school story about showing your true self and not what people think over you. It pretty much was like Romeo & Juliet with text messages since the main couple were from rival schools where the football teams couldn't stand each other.It also got a little bit of Beauty and the Beast since the main love interests was kind of full of himself until Keeley knocked him down a peg or two. It would have gotten four stars from but towards the 70% mark of the book, there were some unnecessary drama that was added that didn't help the story at all. It honestly hindered because it started to feel juvenile. Granted this is a book dealing with high schoolers but the drama could have been a little more mature than immature. This writing was good but the one gripe I have is that it should have been in 1st pov than 3rd. I can't believe I'm saying this cause I love 3rd pov than 1st pov. The fact the whole book was pretty much show all the events and thoughts of these in events in Keeley's point of view and no want else's, warrant's for it to be in 1st pov. In my head I kept changing the pronouns and the narrative flowed better since I saw everything in her mind. Overall it's a cute story but nothing grand about it..."
