For May's #ReadWithMC pick, readers dove into Adelaide by Genevieve Wheeler, a story that took readers on an emotional journey. It follows twenty-something Adelaide, an American living in London who thinks she's found The One when she meets a charming Brit named Rory. However, things between the two aren't all peaches and cream—when Rory experiences an unexpected tragedy, Adelaide gives everything she can to support him, even if it means reaching her breaking point.
If you think Adelaide is a happy-go-lucky love story, you'd be dead wrong. Adelaide's story is more of a heartbreaking testament to self-love, friendship, and personal growth, themes of which our #ReadWithMC readers deeply connected to. "I have never—NEVER—seen so much of myself in a character," writes @alltheradreads. "So many scenes from this book could have been straight from my own life." @lynzeeleereads also related to Adelaide, writing, "You know a book is great when it can take you to an exact moment in time and makes you think about all the things you felt in those memories..."
