 This book. Oh this book. The more I am away from my read of it the more I realize just how much I didn't really like it. This was strange for me because I have never not loved a Kasie West book. But By Your Side just didn't do it for me. It had all the ingredients, library [check]; trapped [check]; opposites attract [check]; cute boy [check, check, check] but all of those ingredients just didn't pan out. The library was 100% not used to its best ability and because of that I felt duped into the book we did end up getting. It was like once Dax and Autumn got out of the library I was reading a whole new book, and it was a book I never saw coming. In the end I just didn't feel like I got what I signed up for and I was left disappointed.
