Books with Multiple POV's | Top 5 Wednesday

This book is actually very uniquely and confusedly told. We mainly follow our Heroine's POV, Cassie, however, the book is split up into different parts, so each part would sometimes start with a different POV. It definitely added depth into this world.
 
 
 
This story follows 3 separate girls whose lives intertwine as they all go out for revenge on the people who's hurt them the most. It's brilliant and vividly done.
 
 
 
A unique fantasy story about Jinni's. The story is a little confusing as we follow our main Heroine's POV, the POV of the Jinni who is after her, her masters and the guy who's come there for help. It's gorgeous written though.
 
 
 
This is mainly told in Diana's POV, but we do get some of the story from her possessive, Vampire husband Matthew. A gorgeous tale with magic and history weaved through each page.
 
 
 
This story follows 3 people. We get to know Lincoln through his story, but we get to know Jen and Beth through their hilarious emails. It's a wonderful story that reads like a movie.

Book Review: Attachments by Rainbow Rowell

Title: Attachments
Author: Rainbow Rowell
Genre: Adult Fiction
Publisher: Orion
Published: February 2012
Page Number: 357

Summary:
By day, two young women spend their hours emailing each other, discussing every aspect of their lives. By night, Lincoln, a lonely IT guy, spends his hours reading every exchange. Soon Lincoln is drawn into their lives, and finds himself falling for one of them. Lincoln decides it's time to muster the courage to follow his heart.





Review:

I've read two former books by Rainbow Rowell and those were Eleanor and Park, which I absolutely loved and would highly recommend, and Fangirl, which was a great story! However, on Sunday 13th July I met Rainbow Rowell and at the signing I bought Attachments, since I had heard such good things about it. It did not disappoint.

Adult Fiction is one of those genre's that I have a love/hate relationship with. I tend to find that the books follow the same plots, but with different characters and different twists. However, this book was beautiful. It was funny as hell and read so much like a movie.

I WANT IT TO BE A MOVIE!

The way Rainbow Rowell writes Jennifer and Beth is incredibly well done. Their friendship is real and sincere and they are hilarious. I cannot count how many times I burst out laughing while reading it. They are the type of girls you'd want to be friends with, because despite them being quite secretive they're also warm and welcoming.

And then you have Lincoln. Oh, Lincoln. He's a sweetheart. He's the guy every girl would dream to take home to their parents because they know they'd approve of him as soon as he had taken off his shoes. He's helpful, kind and it always made me smile when he ate food with Doris. What guy now-a-days would do that? Probably none.

However, there is always one thing I dislike about Rainbow Rowell's books. I never want them to end. They capture your attention from beginning to end and once you finish it's like opening a tub of ice cream and finding out that someone - probably your sisters or brothers - had eaten the last of it.

Just go out and buy this book. Read it. Live it. Review it and then hold on until Rainbow next publishes a book.
