Review of 'Evolution' on 'Goodreads'
5 stars
The MOST emotionally gripping book I’ve read this year.
Desperate yearning is my absolute favorite thing to read when it’s done well, and Evolution decisively checks all the boxes for me. It is a phenomenally well written story of self-denial and years of longing for love that’s just out of reach.
The main couple had understandable reasons they could not be together, and their love story was agonizingly perfect—I loved the flashback vignettes of how they’ve been dancing around their unspoken feelings for years, and with the gorgeous backdrop of music and dance, I was hurtled into another dimension with each swelling emotional crescendo.
Brava. 5 stars
