Under Rose-Tainted Skies by Louise Gornall #BookReview

  Norah has agoraphobia and OCD. When groceries are left on the porch, she can’t step out to get them. Struggling to snag the bags with a stick, she meets Luke. He’s sweet and funny, and he just caught her fishing for groceries. Because of course, he did.

Norah can’t leave the house, but can she let someone in? As their friendship grows deeper, Norah realizes Luke deserves a normal girl. One who can lie on the front lawn and look up at the stars. One who isn’t so screwed up. 

Louise Gornall is YA aficionado, film nerd, junk food enthusiast, and rumored pink Power Ranger. Under Rose-Tainted Skies is her first novel, and she can be found on Twitter @Rock_andor_roll. She lives in England.  

I was so excited to read this one but that excited died a very fast death.  This book is for the lover of the snark.  It was very sarcastic, snarky, and just way-way over the top.  The character didn't seem real and it felt like another book out there of its kind. Just with little things changed.  The romance in this was just ugh. It was another thing that just didn't seem real and was just blah.  Luke sounded like he was scripted and it just didn't work out for me.  If your looking into this book I would try the library first to see if its something you really want to read. You will know early on if your going to love or hate this one.  

But it really just left me feeling like the following.
