A Love Letter to Whiskey

Product Information

Love is the most powerful and real emotion we feel, and I think it’s sort of magical that we can experience some of the greatest loves of all time through books.” I shrugged, “Just makes sense. You’re practically whiskey on legs, anyway. The color of your hair, your eyes, the way you smell — it’s like your spirit drink."

Love is the most powerful and real emotion we feel, and I think it’s sort of magical that we can experience some of the greatest loves of all time through books." While it was nice to get Jamie's side of their romance to clear up just a couple of things, it was all too redundant, which irritated me. It ended nicely, albeit a bit dragged out. Overall, I really enjoyed the story. I highly recommend you read this book if you have it sitting in your tbr pile.Jamie's POV is slightly more juvenile & cheesy but like who cares we're young and free and girls and it's okay

Whiskey stood there, on my doorstep, just like he had one year before. Except this time, there was no rain, no anger, no wedding invitation — it was just us. I always loved that, the first sight of him, the first hit. It was a little jarring, like a slight burn, but the aftertaste was smooth, welcoming, like an old friend calling me home." I feel like this review has been a lot of rambling and I’m not giving this story the type of review it deserves. It’s because my emotions are all over the place. This story is bittersweet. It’s heart-wrenching and soul shattering. And it absolutely blew me away. It’s a book that you’ll love to hate and hate to love. I feel like no matter how you feel after reading, YOU WILL FEEL. This is a story that will elicit strong feelings from everyone who reads it. She is strong minded, reserved, careful and has trust issues because of her family. She wanted success but in the process of getting everything she wanted she was losing Jamie. She was so stubborn that made me so frustrated but I kinda understand her reasons and she was right sometimes. Her character was real and flawed and she was not perfect and her emotions got the worst of her sometimes because she felt too much. But I felt connected to her character so much and I felt her pain, her hopes, and her love. I liked her character development throughout the book and how she came out of everything so strong and happy. But I hate that she wasted so many years when they could be together from the very start.That, to me, is what writing is about—trying to capture those feelings that we all feel, and bring them into words that maybe others couldn’t before.” She was like 'Midnight Rain' to Jamie's Sunshine and they fought 'The Great War' to find their happiness. secondly i am jamie & b till i die, i rooted for them through the entire book HOWEVER i am still a firm believer that b never deserved jamie and it’s a hill i’ll die on and i’m not sorry for it. But wait, isn’t this what you’ve always wanted?” B smiled at me, waiting for me to tell her she was right. And maybe, had this been eighteen-year-old me, I would have. But I knew the truth now.

Love is never easy. Love comes with sacrifice and pain. Love needs patience. Love has its plan but it’s up to us to uncover it. And this book does just that. I wasn’t sorry the first time I kissed you, even when you weren’t mine, and I’m not sorry I kissed you the other night, even when I wasn’t yours. Because the truth is you’ve always been mine, and I’ll always be yours, and that’s just the way it is.”B and Jamie's friendship and relationship was everything and they were so right for each other and yet so wrong. Their friendship was endearing and it started because of their love for music and surfing and they were each other's comfort person. Their attraction to each other was palpable like damn it was love mixed with lust. Whether they were sad or happy they just wanted to share that thing first with each other. They fit so well together in each other's life but they were just in denial for years. They blamed it on timing but timing has always been right for them they just ignored it. And I get why B needed time because she was dealing with grief and she couldn't be together with Jamie at that point the way he wanted her to be but that man always loved her and waited for her for years and when it was her time to wait for him she didn't. And that part literally shattered my heart because he deserved that happiness and he wanted it with her. I wasn’t sorry the first time I kissed you, even when you weren’t mine, and I’m not sorry I kissed you the other night, even when I wasn’t yours. Because the truth is you’ve always been mine, and I’ll always be yours, and that’s just the way it is."
