Re-read 2020
I went in hesitant, but gotta say I still really enjoyed it. I'm not sure if it will be my favorite this go around annnnnd I'd probably rate it more 4 or 4.5 stars, but I'll keep it at 5 because when I initially read it this book felt so refreshing and different. I'm really looking forward to reading the rest of the series.

This is an absolutely amazing book. I want to rush off and read the next one, so let me write up something quick here.
I love all of the characters and can't wait to read more adventures of the brothers. I felt like Jess could be a bit whiny, but it never went so far that I rolled my eyes at her. She and Duane are a great match and reading about them was so, so fun. Duane is great, although his attitude at times almost brought me to the scoffing level. Yet, I didn't mind.
The conflicts are pretty ‘real life' at least Jess wanting to travel. I don't understand it to her extreme, but I understand wanting to see the world. The other conflict wasn't gasp-inducing, at least for me. Maybe I'm too jaded and just assuming everything will work out exactly how I think it will.
I'm honestly curious about one thing that I think was hinted at..... I wonder if it will ever be brought up front and center or if we will be left to wonder about it....
Anyhow, I noticed the next book is about Jethro and I can't wait to get reading it. I don't know which brother I want to read about more, but I think I already have a soft spot for Jethro (and Cletus and Billy and–).
I wanna end this review by thanking the blogging community for practically shoving this book in my face. I appreciate all the reviews of this series, otherwise I may not have ever picked it up!
