I adore Elle Spencer! This book is awesome. I fell in love with Lindsay and Ren. As someone who totally believes in past lives and reconnecting with those from our past lives, this book definitely goes on my must re-read shelf. I loved the shout out to Samantha King. My only complaint was that the epilogue was not long enough. I just wanted more. Also, I would love to read Katie and Roo’s story.
Netgalley Review:
Waiting for You is an ambitious plot. I read the description and was iffy but then noticed the author and decided to try. I think it is a testament to Elle Spencer’s abilities that I stayed interested. It was easy to read in one sitting. The plot had some unevenness and ended kind of abruptly but I enjoyed it.
An honest review thanks to NetGalley. Wow. Elle Spence has written one of my favorite books but I was left disappointed with the few she has recently released. This book has proven me wrong and that she is an absolutely amazing writer. The dialogue between the characters had me literally laughing out loud and giggles continuing after, that's what immediately drew me into the story. Then when Ren and Lindsay meet the book went to explosive new levels. The underlying sub plot of a second life and the secondary character of Mrs. Stokely... wow. I would love a second book with Patty, she was hilarious!! This was an outstanding book and I am so excited for future books from Spencer.
I think Elle Spencer books are getting better and better. This one definitely had a different concept, that's for sure. Past lives is the new way for instant love!
In general this book was enjoyable to read, so I'm just going to highlight my favorited bits. I particularly liked all the side characters/friends and thought they really added warmth and humor to the story. I LOVED the backstory of Joyce and Millie, the little bits we got. Prequel please!
The sex scenes were also hot, just to throw that out there.
I did think it ended pretty abruptly. I was hoping it would have ended before the epilogue, so we could have had a sequel. Nothing wrong with the characters not getting together in the first book...especially when it seems like it's tossed in there quickly.
Overall, I'd recommend it to other readers!
Elle Spencer, once again, has created an original plot with relatable, well rounded characters. Lyndsay’s moment in time where she saw her past, effected her future so greatly that she spent her life fixated on Roo. When she saw Ren at You Moca Me Crazy and passed out, nothing for either of them would ever be the same. The dialogue between the characters was witty and I found the supporting characters added just as much, if not more to the story than our mains. Elle Spencer has written another amazing read. I highly recommend this book!
