Review: Sleepover


Sleepover by Serena Bell

Rating: 3 Stars

This was a fairly quick and easy read, with relatively low drama. The writing could use a little tightening up, there were times it was a little repetitive and overly descriptive, but overall it was well-written. I especially appreciated Bell’s treatment of tough issues; mainly death and adultery. I felt that all the characters were well-rounded and felt very real in how they dealt with their individual issues. The only character issues is that I would have liked to see Sawyer’s in-laws either less or more. They were introduced it seemed, to be a source of conflict, but that never fully panned out. I think either there should have been a confrontation/discussion with them about Sawyer and Elle’s relationship, or they shouldn’t have ever been introduced at all. Still, overall a good read, so if you’re a fan of contemporary romance and/or the single parent trope, be sure to check this one out.

Release date: November 13, 2018
