Review: The Great Pursuit

The Great Pursuit by Wendy Higgins
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book is 4.5 STARS!!! I've always loved Paxton Seabolt and Aerity Lochson's story ever since the first book.


With this one, it's all about the act on doing something that you stand for. Being brave is not enough, you have to believe in yourself and be at one with the people that depends on you. Hoping for someone to love you back is not enough, you have to be able to try to express it to them.

Thoughts:

"Perhaps not everyone is meant to be with the one they love."

- Sometimes it's easy to just stay silent and look from afar. It's easy to love that way because you know that no one can take that away from you. It's like living in the safety zone. However, what if that person loves you back? What if that person doesn't? Well, who cares! Either way, you will never know unless you tell them or have that courage to release all those feelings that you have. Maybe you are meant for each other or maybe you are not. In the end, at least you can move on from there.
- Harrison's feelings was a shock to me at first because I never suspected it!
- As for Aerity, it was really hard to be selfless because you are truly giving up the person that matters most.
- Paxton, well, we all know that he gave up because he knew he couldn’t win. But if I were like him and opportunity always presented itself, I will hold on to it until it lasts.

"But it's okay to show weakness with us. That's what we're here for."

- Having your support group is one of the things that you will always be thankful for. May it be your family, friends or neighbors, you know you can always count on them in times of your downs and lows. This book has shown the importance of family and how they can always lift our spirit when all you think about is giving up or hopelessness. You can always, always show them the bad and the ugly because you know that they will not judge you but understand you through it all.

"Give me a memory of our love that I can keep with me always. Something no one can take from us."
- I WAS REALLY HAPPY WITH THIS MOMENT. HANDS DOWN!!!!

YASSSS! I really wish Tiern and Vi will have there book, but the glimpses in this book were also enough. <3
