Love & Luck- Jenna Evans Welsh ☘️ 💕

Addie and her family have found themselves on the Emerald Isle for their aunt’s destination wedding. Recovering from a heart break and horrible event, she hopes she can let go of those painful thoughts and enjoy her trip. Unfortunately, her big brother, Ian, is breathing down her neck, a constant reminder of what happened and what she has to do next. 

The two siblings find themselves separating from the rest of the family to undergo a road trip in a battered up old car driven by Ian’s endearing friend Rowan. In addition to following Ian and Rowan’s Irish band fan-driven itinerary, Addie has some detours of her own she wants to take. Following an unconventional guidebook, Ireland for the Heartbroken, she finds some comfort in her healing journey. The three take on this adventure filled with breathtaking and zany pit stops, each finding something along the way.

Don’t you love when a  book finds you at the right time?  Love & Luck was the heart-warming, endearing read I needed to remind me of my own strength. I loved the snippets from the heartbreak guidebook and wish it actually existed. It’s chock full of wisdom and a comforting voice. I would absolutely love to go to Ireland some day and take this journey for myself. 

If you’re a fan of YA novels, I insist you read this one. If you’re like the rest of the global population and are currently struggling, I encourage you to pick this one up for yourself. It might surprise you.
