Graceless

Grace Notes, Book 2

De: Ruby Landers

Narrado por: Quinn Riley

Savannah Grace is on top of the world. She's back to selling out stadium tours and winning Grammys and she's just arrived home from her honeymoon after marrying the love of her life…nothing could burst this bubble.

Except, of course, her estranged family.

When her younger sister Cassidy shows up on her doorstep, in need of help and thoroughly—inexplicably—pissed off, the whole household gets turned on its end. Where did she spring from and why the heck is she so damn mad?

Savannah's nanny Lane has grown all the way up, from a cute punk kid to a classic handsome heartbreaker, a long trail of short flings in their wake. They don't have a second to waste on Cassidy, after all, she's rude, ignorant, hot-tempered, and kind of a brat. It's just…does their boss's little sister have to be so hot?

Of course, things could always get worse. Cassidy has one plan and one plan only: for her sister to turn her into a star.

Enby rep and raw emotion!

I loved everything about this book! All of the characters have depth and none of the drama was over done.
Getting to know Lane better and their love story was a treat, add that to getting plenty of time with Savannah and Brynn to see how their story continues equals an epic book!
The narration was on point; Quinn Riley is quickly becoming one of my top 3 narrators!

More Savannah+ emotional rollercoaster

4.5
Ruby Landers is an amazing storyteller and one that we need in our society today. I LOVED Falls From Grace, and I was looking forward to seeing Savannah again because *swoon*.
Savannah is loving her life, her wife is amazing, and she’s pregnant with her second child. But then her sister randomly shows up at her house needing a place to stay. So, what happens when stubborn Cassidy is forced to stay with her perfect sister and interact with her perfect staff? Well… a lot happens.
I knew going into this book it would be emotional, but whew it was E-Motion-Al! Hello, brilliant character arc! Landers did a brilliant job of touching on important issues without inflicting that trauma on the reader with too much detail, but she also makes the reader sit with the implications. Please be patient with yourself if this book triggers something, and if you have to step away, do what’s best for you. I had to step away from this book for a time, but in the end, finishing it brought me some healing and closure. This is a story of finding yourself and unlearning. In a world so divided today, it’s refreshing to read a story about someone who listens and pays attention. I know that doesn’t sound like much, but by listening Cassidy starts to see what she’s been missing, but also the wrong that she’s been taught. I loved going on this journey with her, because not only was it healing for her, it was healing for me. I’d definitely recommend this book, even just for the Savannah and Brynn parts, but Cassidy’s story is an important one that I feel like more people need to read.

Quinn Riley, need I say more? I guess I will… okay, first, the return of Savannah Grace, means the voice that makes me want to melt! Then add in Cassidy’s voice, a rougher and younger version? How she maintains these minute differences will continue to astound me, but aside from the voices themselves, the emotion that Riley brings to the story made me cry on more than one occasion. Hearing Cassidy’s transformation with her sister was stunning and subtle. Savannah is, and forever will be my favorite, and Riley brought the house down! Her emotions came through so clearly through and after the baby’s birth, and it was breathtaking and heart-shattering. Hearing the hurt from before, knowing she’s done all of this by herself, brings a reminder of the genius of Landers and the talent of Riley.
Anyone who knows me knows I will listen to Quinn Riley read anything, but this is one of her best.

absolutely loved book 2

this was a great story and i loved the characters. im sad it was left off with her singing her 1st song. I'm excited for the next book

3 for 3, Ruby Landers! Your books are just stealing my heart ❤️

I love that we continue to see how Savannah and Brynn are doing. In this story, Savannah's little sister, Cassidy, comes crashing into their lives with lots of anger issues. However, she doesn't get under anyone else's skin more than Lane's. Everything starts to get a little...steamy.

This story contains some rough family issues/dynamics, so please take care of you. It's such a good story, though, you'll be swooning at the end 🫶🏽🥰

Great Follow Up

It is nice that all the characters from book 1 are included in this book too. Basically only 3 characters are added. Cassidy is Savannah's very angry younger sister, as well as too students from Lane's school.

While this book is more about Cassidy and her anger with her sister and why she is so angry, we also get to watch Cassidy grow. We also get to learn more about Lane.

This book gets 🌶️🌶️🌶️ for mature content. While there is a little 🌶️ mature content in the beginning between Brynn and Savannah, beware chapter's 33+ for the 🌶️🌶️🌶️ content between the MCs of this book.
