Emma was the type of character that confused me to all end. On one hand, I felt sorry for her as she feels that she was short-changed as her mother dies unexpectedly and she has all these emotions she is trying to deal with and in the same breath, I thought she acted like an immature child. She c...
Heartbeat was a relatively good book for me, although I didn't think it was exceptional. No matter how much I tried, I couldn't connect emotionally. For a book such as this, not connecting emotionally feels like a downfall because the whole concept of it is actually very heartbreaking. Instead, I fe...

There aren’t many books I’d give the “For fans of The Fault in Our Stars” label to. Actually, before Heartbeat, there were exactly zero.

Heartbeat is a novel that deals with grief.I can’t imagine going through everything that Emma is going through. She has so much hate and anger that she needs to talk to someone but refuses to.

I encountered my first Elizabeth Scott novel, Perfect You, from a book fair which took me a few re-readings and a few years to appreciate. I've also read her other works, so when this one popped up on NetGalley, of course I had to request for it! Emma's more than angry and hurt. Her mom is being kep...
Initial reaction: I really appreciated this latest book from Elizabeth Scott. It takes on a tough matter when Emma's stepfather Dan keeps his deceased wife alive for their baby to be born, but Emma's angry over the decision for a multitude of reasons. It's a difficult read in many places, but I thou...
Before you shake your head and turn away at the premise of this book, let me tell you that I did the same thing initially. I love Elizabeth Scott's writing. Her books are instantly added to my TBR whenever a new one comes out. Still, I wasn't sure about Heartbeat. A woman being kept alive for her un...
