πŸ’•πŸš€Big Swooney Heart Feelings For A Cosmic Kind of Love!πŸ’•πŸš€


   Samantha Young's A Cosmic Kind Of Love gave me big, swoony heart feelings even though I went into this book fairly certain it was going to be one giant fluff piece. It was certainly not that!

Hallie Goodman and Captain Chris Ortiz are each going through their own not too recent trauma which makes certain parts of the book angsty as heck. And then there were my own feelings of should Hallie have been watching these videos randomly sent by his ex-fiance. 

Chris' ex-fiance accidentally sent his videos from when he was on the International Space Station, and rather than send them back, Hallie is responding with her own videos - like a private diary. When Chris gets Hallies response, he has his secretary Kate bounce them back to her as though he hasn't seen them. So in my mind they're both being kind of less than truthful when he appears at his ex-fiance's wedding shower just to get to know Hallie - Hallie comes straight out that she watched all the videos and it was something she shouldn't have done. Chris lies to her again about maybe, kind of wanting to have his own retirement party.

Y'all when I tell you, my response at that point was to have try very, VERY hard not to throw my phone against the wall! Because now Chris just keeps lying, and Hallie could get in serious trouble if he sets her up to do this retirement party and then backs out. At the same time both of their families are just awful. You know that kind of awful that makes your head and stomach hurt all at the same time?

So much angst!! Hallie is a people pleaser, and every time she gets stuck in between her divorced parents again, I just wanted to scream. Chris' response on the other hand is straight up avoidance. He doesn't seem to understand that his father is manipulating him again, it just made me so sad - Chris wanted their relationship to be better and it was NOT getting there.

This is DEFINITELY the sloooow burn kind of book I crave at least four or five times a year, so prepare yourself for that because otherwise you might just be at the 72% of the book screaming to yourself wondering if they're never actually going to kiss.

And the people pleasing aspect and avoidance of both Hallie and Chris personalities makes communication incredibly difficult for both of them until various people actually slam it down in front of them that nothing will change unless they grow.

I absolutely love, LOVED Althea and Chris' Aunt Richelle, but Althea and Hallie's coworker Dominic definitely needed a strong swift jab to the throat region, and I think I still want to unalive both the rest of their families. I don't think there's enough growth to make them salvageable. 

A Cosmic Kind Of Love is definitely worth 5 out of 5 stars for new to me Author Samantha Young, this book will surely not be my last!!
