Book one of three in the Bright Side series

Kate Sedgwick’s life has been anything but typical. She’s endured hardship and tragedy, but throughout it all, she remains happy and optimistic (there’s a reason her best friend Gus calls her Bright Side). She’s quick-witted, endlessly passionate about music, the first to offer a smile, and the kind of loyal that most friends only dream about. The one thing that escapes her optimism is love. She’s never bought into it, never believed in it. So, when Kate leaves San Diego to attend college in the small town of Grant, Minnesota, the last thing she expects is to fall hard for Keller Banks.

They both feel it.

But they each have a reason to fight it.

They each have a secret.

And when secrets are revealed,

they may heal you,

or they may end you.

Note from the author: Due to strong language and sexual content, this book is recommended for mature audiences.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"This book! You. Must. Read. It. It’s beautiful. Heart-wrenching." (Colleen Hoover, number one New York Times best-selling author)

More than I was expecting

I didn’t really know much about this book before starting it. In fact, I think the reason I bought it was because of the narrators. As I got into the story I, like everyone else, found myself loving Kate and wishing I was more like her. And I think that’s what makes the second half of this book so incredibly heartbreaking. Because Kate is dealing with something that she doesn’t share with the outside world and she knows she has to make the best of everything while she can.

Beautiful story

Beautiful story that brings in all the feels. I read the whole thing in two settings. Must read!

Great

This was a heartfelt story!! Will probably read again. Thank you for writing a great book

Great book

This is a tear jerker. It’s a great book, that makes you want to be like Kate. Do epic!

What a journey!

This fantastic book will stick with me forever. I’m not sure I’ll ever recover. It’s just, simply, that great!

Worth the read

I’m usually not into this genre but it was recommended to me and I gave it a shot. While it was predictable, like a Hallmark movie, I did enjoy the story. I would definitely say this is more of a teenage drama/easy read. But if you are into that, you’ll love this.
My biggest problem was the voice performance. I would have to turn the volume way up to hear what was said “under the breath” and then way down for the next sentence. It got quite annoying, but I made it through.

Writing this through my tears.

Bright Side doesn't have a crazy plot, or a story that leads up to an action packed dramatic climax. It is a story of life, truth, friendship, pain and love. It is a story that will make you think. It'll make you look at life and the way YOU look at life. Kate was such a beautiful character. She was written to be so incredibly believable. Her positivity wasn't fake or cringy. I love the way her character was written and what we learned with every chapter.
I recommend this book. I can see this being a beaming journey for a lot of us. Buckle up abs grab some tissues.

This was very touching!

Grab your tissues ladies and Gents this one will take you! I’m not going to get into to much detail at first I thought I may be a tad bit to oldish to read this then I fell in love with all the characters…
Please read this one.

What an amazing book

This book nearly broke me it was so gut wrenching and heartbreaking but that’s what love and life are all about. It was such a beautiful story and I have never cried so much to one book. I started listening to this book because I love the narrator’s and wanted to hear them both together and I’m so glad I did. Highly highly recommend and I can’t wait to read the other books in the series

emotional read

love this story! it's sad but gives you all the feels. I usually never cry when I read but i sure did this one.
