I have a favorite that was emotional and beautiful, but don't want to spoil it. What was one of the most memorable moments of Wait for It? The characters are strong, relatable, and impossible not to love.
What did you love best about Wait for It?
I very much enjoyed Callie’s narration she is fast becoming a favorite narrator, her voice/emotion/tone really brings the stories to life. I know Zapata does the slow burn and that is great but I need a spark of something from both not just one side to feel like a romance. I think maybe if we felt more than just friendship from him for sooooo long then I might have enjoyed the book more. Dallas is a good character but I just feel like we don’t know him very well, we only really know that he was in the Navy, married and waiting to be divorced before starting something. Josh and Louie are the best part of this book, in my opinion, they are so cute and exactly how a 10 yr old and 5 yr old would act it isn’t even funny how accurate it is. Diana, for her unwavering positivity, even when her own heart is hurt from the loss of her brother, but she is a mother now and she does what needs to be done. I very much liked each character in their own way. Now just because I rated it a 3 doesn’t mean I hated it. So after reading From Lukov with Love, I thought I would give this book a try.
They personality she puts into each character is no doubt how the author intended them to have. She is the perfect narrator and no man is required because she has an awesome male voice. Do I need to say more? Diana and Dallas have a very long journey that has so much push and pull that whenever there is even a hint of them making a go of it, my heart would start beating fast and I would see Hearts. He has values and a devotion to the community and he TAKES CARE OF HIS GRANDMA. For a book that has depth and content, you expect characters like Dallas, but that doesn't make him any less wonderful. We don't stop trying to please our parents as adults and Diana was in an especially precarious situation raising her brothers children. She's of Mexican decent and while she is more "Americanized" and liberal, her parents are such stereotypical Mexican Catholics that it added a level of familial humor that I just loved. I freakin love a strong female lead and Diana was awesome. Diana just wants to be a good parent to these boys and a good daughter to her overly protective parents and a good employee but most of all a good person. She is in her late 20's and going through IT. Diana is the aunt to 2 boys that were otherwise orphaned from her brother dying. Those stories that have so much build up, you think you'll explode before it peaks. *audio review* Mariana Zapata is queen of the "slow burn".
