CoHo is, undeniably, a damn good writer. No matter how cliched her books can be. No matter how predictable her stories can be. She's a good story-teller. She knows how to pull her readers in, how to entice them, how to make them fall head over heels with her characters.While I don't fall head over heels with the characters here, I like the way their characters developed, how they matured. Mind you, these are young characters but due to the hardships they faced, they have more depth to their characters, more layers, so to speak. Compared to Julie in [b:You've Reached Sam 53086843 You've Reached Sam Dustin Thao https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1610730335l/53086843.SY75.jpg 73341676], I found Beyah to be more realistic and relatable. And likeable.As per usual CoHo, the mummy/daddy issue is present. But I admire how Beyah carries herself, how strong and adamant she is (despite her obsession with Samson, but I understand why).Come at me, world. You can't damage the impermeable.Another gem from CoHo, for sure.
