Review: Main Characters by Bobby Palmer


Blurb from Goodreads:
THIS IS A LOVE STORY, TOLD BY EVERYONE BUT THE MAIN CHARACTERS.

Clara and Seb are about to fall in love. They don't know it yet. But everybody else does.

When Clara and Seb meet in a quiet corner of London, it's the start of something. She wants to be a director. He's an actor, unsure what he wants from life.

Their connection is magnetic. Everyone can see that falling in love looks something like this. But when Clara casts Seb in the film that will make her name, what should be the happiest time of their lives ends with a gut-wrenching betrayal.

Some love stories are bigger than just two people. This one is told through the eyes of friends, flatmates, exes and strangers who see all the sides of Seb and Clara, from their first date to the moment they fell apart.

Everyone has their version of events. But only Clara and Seb can decide how their story ends...
 
If you like realistic, complex and not always happy love stories, this book is for you!  It was told in such a unique way -- by everyone but the main characters -- but that method often left me feeling disconnected from these sad, lovesick souls.  Still, very interesting and well written.  Give it a try!

Main Characters comes out next week on June 30, 2026 and you can purchase HERE.  
He imagines that she lives like this: in opposition. She'd look like an Old Hollywood actress, if it weren't for the hoodie and the leather jacket and the thoroughly modern scowl. The cable of a single headphone hangs from one of her ears. Behind the other, she tucks a few strands of white-blond hair. The hair, frazzled by bleach and just short enough to resist confinement, falls back over her face. She tucks it away again. It falls again. In her other hand is a pen. Or pencil. Her fingers are black with ink, or charcoal. He's too far away to tell.

Conversations With Myself (& Hopefully You): Should There Be ARCs?

First of all, thank you SO much for reading my very first "discussion" post .  The response was so amazing and I am so grateful to each and every one of you that took the time to read it.  I would like to preface my next discussion post in the same way -- nothing is new and I'm sure that this topic has been discussed by someone, somewhere but this is what is on my mind: SHOULD THERE BE ARCs? Truly, not everything I think about and write about is regarding Maggie Stiefvater's epic series, The Raven Cycle , but it just so happens that this discussion post will mention this series, too.   Those of us that are obsessed with this series (like me) know that there will not be any ARCs for the highly (HIGHLY) anticipated last book of this series, The Raven King . There will be no ARCs (advanced reader copies). Y'all are just going to have to trust me. https://t.co/xYDv0q1tXN — Maggie Stiefvater (@mstiefvater) December 5, 2015 Oddly, I think this ...
