And honestly, anyone that’s been in love and it’s been a rocky road will relate to this, and even if you haven’t, you will still relate, because the characters themselves are relatable. Wondering if I would relate to these characters or the story. Excited to see what kind of story this would be. When I read the blurb to this book I was totally intrigued. No, to tell this story right, we need to go back. It was just me - the alcoholic, pretending like I didn’t want to taste him, realizing too quickly that months of being clean didn’t make me crave him any less. It was just him - the old friend, the easy smile, the twisted solace wrapped in a glittering bottle. Except this time, there was no rain, no anger, no wedding invitation - it was just us. Whiskey stood there, on my doorstep, just like he had one year before. This review is also available on Goodreads.It’s crazy how fast the buzz comes back after you’ve been sober for so long. I like that it ended without fanfare but I also wish it ended differently :p It would appeal to readers who like going through emotions. I had chest pain in the two days I read it but since I’m an emotional pain whore, it was a beautiful torture lol!Ī Love Letter To Whisky is a journey of two people growing up and owning up to their heart’s desires. It’s ever present, constantly simmering and sometimes boiled over here and there. All we do is hurt each other, hurt the ones who love us, hurt ourselves.”Īs mentioned this book was full of angst. His confidence was attractive but his vulnerability was what melted my heart.

He was not without fault but I forgave him for his situation. “So if I can’t have you at your worst, and I can’t have you at your best, then when do I get you, B? When does the timing line up for you to stop fighting what we have between us and just let me in?”

Her actions were frustrating and there were a lot of time I wanted to bitch slap her face haha! But very quickly my feelings for her shifted. Not yet, at least.ī started as someone I like. I knew what he wanted, what he needed in life - but I also knew I couldn’t be that for him. I thought it’s about addiction and it is but not the kind I thought – which is better. I wasn’t sure what this book is about but I saw reviews mentioning angst, and that’s what pulled me in. She grasped on to it for a long time because the lingering taste was worth it – not counting the pain and heartbreaks that came with it. From the first taste she had, she was hooked on the exquisite taste of Jamie Shaw.
