Reader reviewed by Mairi

Ever since his parents' divorce Leigh Hunter has felt a little lost on the road map of life, but he still trusts that he will end up in the right place- or he does, until his stepsister Millie introduces him to Maia Morland. From the start, Leigh finds Maia interesting, though not potential girlfriend material- she is, after all, a complete train wreck. Leigh isn't certain what Millie finds so appealing about Maia, but he is greatful to her for providing stability in his sister's life and so makes an effort to befriend her.

When I heard that Garrett Freymann-Weyr had a new book out, I knew right away that I would have to read it- I've read everything she has written, despite the fact that it isn't my genre at all, because the characters she creates are amazing. What's amazing about them isn't that they seem real, though they certainly do. What's amazing is that no matter how many layers you peel off the surface, there will always be a clear character underneath.


If you're going to read this book, do it at a time when you're interested in meeting new people, because that's what reading After the Moment is like.
