Puppy Love

This is a fun coming-of-age romance. It brought back memories my first (puppy) love during High School. It has all the "drama" and feelings you want from a book like this one. I loved the ending!

Short, relatable, and emotional

Being a fan of L.J. now for years, I kind of feel like I danced around whether or not this was HER story or not. In any case, the story is very very relatable, especially for those of us who were around in the days of ICQ. *giggle* I laughed, I cried, I was pissed off. It was a fantastic read and an enjoyable listen. I know that people were expecting the usual from L.J. and that's where the reviews are getting hung up, but c'mon! It says right in the description that it's based on a true story. It's going to be a departure from her normal works. All in all, I do recommend it.

Kinda depressing

I wasn’t sure what to expect, but it was free & relatively short, so I figured why not?
I found it kind of depressing, honestly. It does have a happy ending, but it was just kind of sad overall.

Cute!

What an awesome short teenage romance. Narration was fabulous and you really felt like you were transported back to that time in your life! Love LJ Shen always! Such a great reflection on how relationships change your life.

Punk love gave me all the feels!

I loved this novella because I also related to the character in many ways (did L.J Shen watch a video of my teen years?) lol Super cute and really brought me back to my youth.

Sweet story of the roller coaster emotions with first love, heartbreak, and the non stop lessons and change that continue throughout adulthood.

Loved it 🤟🏻

I loved LJ’s story & looked forward to the monthly newsletter chapters. Vanessa does a wonderful job as the slightly naive, kinda snarky, head in the clouds & heart full of love Laura💕

I loved everything about this book!!

I very rarely give all the stars!! But this book although shorter then I normally enjoy was really great. It’s come of age story that didn’t at all go the direction I expected. I was just looking for a fast book that I didn’t have to think much about and instead I found an amazing book that I am pretty sure I could read again (which is super rare for me as well) I like it that much I am going to check out a whole lot more of this author and narrators again!! Give rush really sweet coming of age story a chance!

so sweet and cute

NOT LJ'S USUAL STYLE, BUT BRILLIANT LIKE ALL THE REST! IT WILL TAKE YOU BACK TO A TIME IN YOUR LIFE THAT WAS MORE SWEET, INNOCENT AND SIMPLE, AND IT WILL MAKE YOU REMEMBER AND MISS ALL THOSE PRECKOUS MOMENTS. THANKS FOR THE MEMORIES LAURA.
