I adore Lindsey Kelk’s novels and I Heart Vegas is no
exception. In fact, it might even have vaulted into my favourite of the I Heart
Series. Full of Vegas drama in typical Angela style, I laughed out loud and
even shed a few tears with this one right along with Angela’s ups and
downs.
Angela Clark is back with all her antics, insecurities and
amusing decisions. For some reason, her plight in I Heart Vegas felt the most
real to me - perhaps why I connected with this novel the most. I could
understand the reasons why she didn’t want to bring up the subject with
Alex and why she didn’t want the outcome her friends were pushing on her,
although I could see their point too. I also loved the revisit to Vegas, which
I’ve travelled to once before and enjoyed reliving it, albeit not quite
at the same intoxicated pace and emotional duress that Angela explored it from,
but I loved reading about her adventures there.
Angela’s internal dialogue and predicaments
are as amusing as ever. I’ve said it my last two reviews of Kelk's
I Heart series before, but I’ll repeat in case you haven’t *gasp* read them yet – I love that in
these novels the heroine already has a boyfriend and isn’t just searching
for love but instead they explores their relationship. There are few
novels like this – Many are either; single and searching, boyfriend pre
breakup or married and managing.
I loved the unpredictability of I Heart Vegas. Kelk dragged
it out mercilessly and I wasn’t quite sure how the end of would play out
even though I thought I did from the beginning. Kelk convinced me that what I
had anticipated wasn’t going to occur after all and with already knowing
the title of the next novel, I was bamboozled right up until the end about
which way things were going to go both with her life and love.
I suspect this novel would stand alone well if you
didn’t want to read all the novels in the series, but why would you want
to do that? And if you’re already an Angela fan, you definitely
won’t be disappointed! I can’t wait for the next one in the
series now! Bring on London !
And I only have to wait a few more months! SQUEE!

ReplyDeleteI still have to track down this series and devour it. I really liked A Single Girl's To-Do List and look forward to reading more of Kelk's books :)
