The Way Back Home: A Kayla Hicks Book Review
What is the final book in the Wildflower series, The Way Back Home about?
Music sensation Bird Barrett is hitting the road, headlining her first national tour after the launch of her second album. Singing to sold-out crowds can mess with a girl's sense of perspective, though. Luckily, Bird has her older brother, Dylan, and her best friend, Stella, along for the ride to keep her grounded.
Then Dylan and Stella pair off as more than friends. Feeling left behind, Bird throws herself completely into her performances, cover shoots, and high-profile interviews. And the more she tries to distract herself with her career, the further she pushes everyone away-including her longtime crush, Adam Dean, who joined the tour as her opener. When Bird breaks down, she'll need help to find her footing again. But has she pushed everyone too far? In a life like this one, a country girl needs her family and friends-and maybe an old flame-most of all.
A foot-stompin' finale to Alecia Whitaker's irresistible Wildflower series.
My review:
Bird is headlining her very own tour for the first time and gets to plan it too. Knowing this is a huge step in her career, she can't fight off the sadness of losing Kai but knows it is for the best.
But after her opening band for her tour leaves the tour, she is able to ask Adam, her first crush and almost love to be her opener.
What she didn't anticipate is her feelings that are still present for Adam. Or that this tour and her rising fame would be over encompassing, leaving her feeling drained.
I loved this whole series and honestly I could have read book after book about Bird Barret. Such a wonderful cast of characters, as well as relatable.
