Hi everyone, welcome to this second week of December. Christmas is just around the corner and my nieces are getting super excited. This week I’m giving you a teen book for your reading pleasure. Hope you enjoy the sunshine and laughter this read brings you!!

Title: Listen to your heart
Author: Kasie West
Genre: Fiction – contemporary
Publication details: Point; USA, 2018
ISBN: 9781338210057 (Hardcover)
What this book is about: Kate Bailey is not a huge fan of Talking to other people. She’d much rather be out on the lake, soaking up the solitude and sunshine. So when her best friend, Alana, convinces Kate to join their high school’s podcast, Kate is not expecting to be chosen as the host. Now she’s expected to answer calls from listeners and give advice on air. But to Kate’s surprise, she turns out to be pretty good at hosting. Then the podcast gets a call from an anonymous guy asking for advice about his unnamed crush. Suddenly, Kate finds that while doling out wisdom to others may be easy, asking for help is tougher than it looks – and following your own advice is even harder. Full of the witty banter and adorableness that have garnered Kasie West legions of fans, this story of secrets, love, and friendship will win over hearts everywhere.
My review: A lovely high school story on friendship, family, love and high school dramas!! I really enjoyed the description of the podcast class Katie and Alana attend. Readers will find some funny and memorable characters along with vivid descriptions of life along the lake. Unlike most of the teen romances out there this would fall under the ‘clean’ category!! A really great read!
My rating: 4½⭐
