Headstrong Like Us (Like Us #6)

The anticipation for this book was everything, I couldnt wait to get my hands on it and devour it… and thats exactly what I did. Who needs sleep when a book youre anxiously waiting for releases? Not me. Thats why its 2:30am on release day and Im writing this review. This is hands down my favorite book of 2019.

Everything about this book and the wedding of Maximoff Hale to Farrow Redford Keene was AMAZING. I knew going into it Id shed a few tears.. and I did. But they were all extremely happy tears.

From page one youre sucked in. The anticipation of the wedding to the love Maximoff never thought hed have, to his childhood crush no less. I never expected to fall in love with these two as much as I have, but I regret nothing. I love sharing their love with others because their love is, in a word Farrow uses so often.. pure. Deserving, equal, heartwarming and perfect.

There are so many pieces of this book that had my heart full of love. The relationships between Omega and the famous ones is beautiful, but out of all the relationships? I think the glimpses we see of Thatcher and Farrow are some of my favorite. Dont get me wrong, Oscar, Donnelly and Farrow have one of my favorite friendships ever, but seeing Thatcher and Farrow bond over the one thing they have in common with each other and no one else? AmazIng.

This book was everything. I loved it start to finish. I cant wait to read it again. I cant wait for others to read it again. Why? Because everyone deserves to feel what Maximoff and Farrow have. A 100% true love that makes you better and lets you experience everything you deserve with each other.

This book was everything and so much more.

If you are as much of a huge fan of Farrow and Maximoff as I am, youll love this book. Beginning to end!

Farrow and Maximoff have toppled my until then favorite couple Rose and Connor from the throne, just by how incredibly in tune they are with each other. I admit that I could read many more books about this specific couple, but I also know that not everyone feels like this.

But because of that sentiment, I personally feel like this novel was as close to perfection as it could have been. Its a 400+ page love letter to my favorite LIKE US couple. Hundreds of pages about Farrow and Maximoff being themselves, their trademark teasing and taunting made me smile and laugh.

Headstrong Like Us was comfort food for my soul. It made me literally happy reading this book.

I adore the family dynamic from all the families, the trust, faith and unlimited support from the entire cast. And I treasured every conversation between the bodyguards, and was delighted to see their friendships grow and deepen.

I loved the wedding preparations and the wedding itself. I loved the additions to their little group. And most of all I loved the many wonderful scenes between Farrow and Maximoff. I adored how deeply in sync they were with each other. Their faith and support for each other was unconditionally – thats what makes this couple so irresistible for me.

Yes, I did stay up all night to read this why do you ask?

This was good. Ill be completely honest, there wasnt a lot going on here, and I think it could have been a novella, but whatever. Slight spoilers ahead!

This book was very focused on Maximoff and Farrow, which okay, duh. But Jane and Thatchers books always made sure to show us a lot of the supporting cast. This book did not do that.

What I liked:

– The bachelor party scenes. It was the most we saw of other characters and were the most entertaining, lots of drama!
– The actual wedding scene. Moffy and Farrow can be really cute sometimes. The wedding scene was so emotional and I loved the vows.
– Oscar and Jacks interactions. There werent a lot, but I honestly cant wait for their book. Im emotional just thinking about it.
– A surprising amount of Girl Squad scenes, I approve.

What I didnt like:

– I thought the drama with Los new therapist was unnecessary and didnt add anything
– No Daisy Calloway??
– Lily and Lo fighting the entire book
– Sulli and Beckett didnt make up

From the blurb I thought the wedding was going to go a lot worse, but everything went pretty smooth. Also the authors hinted that there was a big twist. Im still trying to figure out what that twist was lol. I dont think anything too shocking happened, but that might just be me.

I keep changing my review between three and four stars. It should probably be a 3 or 3.5, but I love this ensemble of characters too much. Im just ready to move on from this couple, and the Hale family entirely for a while.

List of characters that definitely need a book: Charlie, Beckett, Luna, and Sulli. They all need at least 2-3 books minimum. Paul Donnelly deserves to be happy and find his family, he and Luna are perfect for each other. I have no idea who the perfect person for Charlie would be, but he deserves to find them. Sulli and Beckett have the potential to have amazing polyam relationship with their people, and Im here for it.

Also, I need a Cobaretti wedding, stat!

It sucks that Charming Like Us wont be out until JUNE, but I at least I have the Bad Reputation Duet to keep me company in two months. Willow and Garrison are coming for you

If your a fan of the Like Us series this is your next read it’s the wedding and it follows these characters into the next stage so can not wait for the next two books a few chapters of descript gay sex so be warned but it is part of the story not just there for the sake of it. I love the characters so would recommend this series.

If you’re a Moffy & Farrow fan you’ll love this book!
(You HAVE TO read the other 5 books in the series first)
I dont want to give anything away, so I’ll just say it’s everything you expect from a Krista & Becca novel – 5 stars as always
