She opened up my eyes when I needed it the most and for that I will always feel grateful. If not for Rainbow, I wouldn’t have discovered this incredible world that books provide you with. Her stories are the ones that got me into reading and I cannot thank her enough for that. I seriously cannot get enough of her books, they all hold a special place in my heart. Her stories are so sweet and heartwarming. I’m also really glad that I decided to reread Carry On before starting Kindred Spirits because it put me in the perfect Rainbow Rowell mood. I finished this book with tears in my eyes (happy tears of course). I loved every second I spent reading this book and I wished it would never end. I lost count of how many times I smiled and sighed happily. The humor, the honesty, and the love that Rainbow captures in this story is phenomenal. There was a stuffed Chewbacca in her crib.” in the same way she couldn’t remember the first time she saw her parents. “Elena couldn’t remember the first time she saw a Star Wars movie. I really appreciated the love the main character has for movies. In this particular short story, we follow Elena waiting in line to see the newly released Star Wars movie. Rainbow Rowell truly knows how to write an amazing story. Whenever I talk about the characters in her books, I feel weird when I realize they don’t actually exist in the real world (unfortunately so). I love knowing that no matter what state of mind I’m in, I can always turn to Rainbow Rowell’s stories and they will automatically cheer me up.Īnother thing I love about Rainbow’s characters is how real they are. She has this incredible way of drawing the reader into the story and once inside it- never being able to let go (the best feeling!!). Just when I thought Rainbow Rowell couldn’t get any better, she releases a new story. However Elena changed or grew, Star Wars seemed to be there for her in a new way.
