How not to let go
How not to let go
Read my review on book one How not to Fall :

If I had to use 4 words to describe this book: Less sex; more England.
This book picked up right from where How not to Fall left off. With Annie leaving Indiana to continue on to medical school.
Without Charles.
Charles woke up to her gone. Respecting her request for space, he decides to give it.
When they meet up again at a wedding, coincidentally, Charles tells her he will be there when he's ready.
They both know the Thing is not yet over.
They both know the Thing is not yet over.
Through England, family, Abba, climbing, more sciencey talk, a tent and, (unfortunately) a lot less wit from Annie, we see their relationship be pushed again and again until they realize they need to define what exactly their Thing is.
Once I picked this up, I couldn't stop. It wasn't as hilarious as the first one, but I was okay with it. Annie and Charles' relationship is one that other relationship should set their standards to (minus the pit-swamp-rage mountain. Don't want for that. If you have one of those, fight though). I gave up on this one as far as googling the science terms; thankfully there weren't as many.
Foster never fails to bring her A-game. She will have you laughing, crying, and definitely talking to the characters when they do something wrong. The writing is just as snappy as the first volume of this love story, and just as tasteful.
This particular reader really hopes this isn't the end for these two.
