A review by mmccombs
A Love Song for Ricki Wilde by Tia Williams

emotional funny lighthearted mysterious medium-paced

4.0

One of the swooniest, most magical romances I’ve ever read! Simply fantastical and outlandish, it is warm and sweet and funny because it never compromises on the magical part to its realism. I love the way Williams writes, there is something so breezy and effortless to her prose. While sometimes I was like “ugh cheesy!” it all worked to create a compelling, fun romance that also dipped into more serious themes. I loved these characters and their chemistry, the puns and pop-culture references were on the whole well executed, and the sense of place in Harlem (both historical and present) was so vivid. I loved Seven Days in June and loved this one too, I can’t wait for more romances (and hopefully some great movie adaptations, too!)
