The Year I Became Isabella Anders
Synopsis
Isabella Anders has always been the girl that never fit in. Most days she feels invisible, especially when she’s around her older sister, Hannah, who catches the eye of everyone, including Kai and Kyler, the boys who live next door.
Isabella has had a crush on Kyler for years, but knows he’ll never see her as anything more than Hannah’s little sister, unless she finds a way to standout.
When Isabella gets an offer from her grandmother to travel overseas for the summer, she seizes the opportunity, hoping she’ll discover more about herself. And she does, but not in the way that she expected.
Three months later, Isabella returns home an entirely new person. The change is enough to catch both Kyler and Kai’s attention. But Isabella is still struggling with what she discovered over the summer and until she deals with the truth, she’ll never truly be herself.

*****
The Year I Became Isabella Anders is one of the best books I’ve read this year. As soon as I started reading it I never wanted it to end. I was enchanted by the story and adored Isabella for her strength. 

Isabella is such an amazing young lady. My heart was broken more than I can count while reading the book because of how cruel her family is. I just never got what their deal was and it made me so angry. I just kept hoping that someone would come along and save her from the awful family she ended up with. When you find out the truth about Isabella your heart will stop and you’ll be just as shocked as I was. 

I loved Isabella’s journey through the story. Her trip with her grandmother and adventures she has are so inspirational. She just takes her cousin’s advice and lives in the moment and experiences things that she wouldn’t have gotten to if she had been home. You’ll fall in love with the story just as much as me; it’s so heartwarming and just overall delightful. Jessica Sorensen has done it again and given me a story that I got lost within the pages of and never wanted to end. 

Isabella has two guys in this book that seem to look out for her and take up for her, but if I had to pick just one I’d go with Kai. I couldn’t help but love him and adore his and Isabella’s banters. I found myself smiling throughout the whole book where the two of them were concerned. But let me prepare you the ending will make your heart STOP. I was like oh my goodness, no!!! 

I am so excited for book two and can’t get my hands on it quick enough. So if you love reading a sweet romance filled with lots of twists and turns, as well as a fun adventure then this is the book for you. I highly recommend this one.

I give The Year I Became Isabella Anders by Jessica Sorensen 5 out of 5 DELIGHTFUL STARS!

Excerpt
Cold rain instantly soaks through my clothes as I skip down the driveway, moving awkwardly, because I can’t bend one knee. I don’t care though. Rain is awesome. And it smells so great. Seriously, if I could, I’d skip around in the rain all the time. My hair is drenched by the time I reach the sidewalk, and the flip-flops splash water from the puddles all over the backs of my legs. It reminds me of this one time Kai and I walked home in the rain and we intentionally splashed in all the puddles. “Isa! What are you doing?!” Someone shouts with a hint of laughter in their voice. My head whips to the side as I stumble to a stop. Kai is standing out on the side deck, beneath the shelter of the roof, and I think he might be laughing at me, but the veil of rain crashing from the cloudy sky makes it difficult to see. “Going to the paint store!” I shout then wave at him and start to skip off again. “Are you crazy?” he calls out. “You can’t walk to town in the middle of a rainstorm.” I sigh and slow down again. “I’m not walking! I’m skipping!” My eyelashes flutter against the rain. “Can’t you wait until it at least stops raining?” he asks, shaking his head as I jump into a puddle. “No way! It’s either the rain or being in the house with Hannah. And I choose the rain. Besides, rain is awesome!” I can hear him laughing all the way from over here. “Would you get your ass over here?” He waves at me to come to him. “I’ll drive you if you really want to go. But it’s too damn cold for you to be playing around in the rain, no matter how cute you look.” Cute? Did he just call me cute? Isabella Teaser 1 Isabella Teaser 3 Isabella Teaser2     Trailer
