Dear Aaron by Mariana ZapataMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
I love Mariana Zapata. She has mastered the art of the slow burn romance. She never rushes the characters together, it's an evolution of relationships that the reader gets to be a part of. I have read the Wall of Winnipeg and Me several times now, and will probably read it again some day. However, this book for me was not all that I have come to expect from one of her books. I enjoyed the email exchanges, I was a little shocked that over 50% of the book is just the characters interacting through email and chat. But still I didn't hate it. I probably would have given this book five stars if the Epilogue had given me more! I felt a little cheated. I read every word of Aaron and Ruby getting to know each other, and then the end was just like. See ya! I could not believe it. I could have used a little more, like a wedding scene or even, gosh anything!
So please, let me just say, if you want to read Mariana Zapata at her finest, pick up the Wall of Winniepeg and Me or Kulti. Please don't give up on her. This was an okay book, but this was not the M.Z. greatness we have gotten from previous books.
With that said, bring on the next one, I'll gladly read it.
