No... But Vee has an annoying habit of hitting Cameron when annoyed that wasn't intended as abusive but over time I'd have serious issues with.
Love Songs and Other Lies was one of those books that sucked me in from the beginning and kept me happily turning the pages until it's over and I was left wondering why I enjoyed the book so much but unable to deny that I really really did enjoy it.
There was so much that could have annoyed me about it but it just didn't.
For example, Vee's bitchiness and inability to forgive Cameron. Cam's refusal to reveal his 'secrets'. Logan and his weird not-boyfriend boyfriendyness (< it could be a word!). Vee's special snowflake status... I could go on but it doesn't matter.
None of it mattered because this book was catnip and I was a cat.
I wanted to roll around in it forever and just enjoy the high.
It made me smile. It gave that happy, floaty, butterfly feeling you get when falling in love.
It's a book about second chances and chasing your dreams.
It's optimistic and it's hopeful.
It was an awesome summer read and even though I'm unlikely to re-read it, I know I'll remember the feeling it evoked.
If you're a fan of YA/NA contemporary romances then definitely give it a read!

“Sometimes you don't know what you want until you just do. It hits you like a wave, knocks you underwater, and when you surface, all you want is this one thing. It's like gasping for air.”

“I wonder if this is what falling in love sounds like. Like butterfly wings in my ears and trumpets in my stomach and like the pound of bass in my chest.”

“You were the missing lyrics to a song I didn't even know I was writing.”
Sounds like a good read. Catnip for the cat. lol
