Stepping into the pages of "Sincerely Yours..." was like taking a delightful trip to the 1980s! As someone who loves that era (and especially the music), the nostalgia factor in this book was awesome. From the alternative music references to the vintage fashion, the author perfectly captured the essence of the decade without it feeling forced or cliché.Beyond the fantastic '80s vibe, what truly won me over was the romance between Josie and Blaine. In a world of often-complicated YA relationships, their story was a breath of fresh air – wholesome, clean, and genuinely sweet, completely devoid of any unnecessary drama or contrived misunderstandings. It was a pure and heartfelt connection that blossomed beautifully. Josie herself is an incredibly likable protagonist with so many admirable qualities; her purity and courage are inspirational.
While "Sincerely Yours..." is clearly aimed at teens and young adults, I, as an adult reader, found myself completely in love with this story. It's a testament to a truly well-crafted story when it can resonate across age groups. As C.S. Lewis famously said, "I am almost inclined to set it up as a canon that a children's story which is enjoyed only by children is a bad children's story." This book absolutely nails that sentiment, proving to be an awesome read for anyone, regardless of age. Highly recommend for a dose of '80s magic and a genuinely charming story!

A spellbinding blend of 80s nostalgia, mystery, and heart!
Sincerely Yours is an unforgettable ride through the neon-lit streets of Haven Cove, where music, magic, and self-discovery collide. Josie Worthington is the kind of bold, rebellious heroine you can’t help but root for, and her journey from anonymous advice columnist to a force challenging the supernatural is as gripping as it is empowering. Sonia masterfully weaves vintage fashion, alternative rock, and paranormal intrigue into a story that feels both nostalgic and fresh. The chemistry between Josie and Blaine is electric, and the emotional depth is matched only by the book’s cinematic atmosphere. With original 80s-inspired songs and a vibe reminiscent of Stranger Things and Nancy Drew, this is YA done right.
If you’re craving a story that pulses with mystery, romance, and retro charm Sincerely Yours is your next obsession.FIVE STARS

When I first received my copy of 'Sincerely Yours', I did not know what to expect. "Sincerely Yours, Written In The Stars And Inked In Destiny" is not just a book; it's an experience. From the very first page, I was completely captivated by a highly poignant and nuanced story that navigates love tropes, but provides a profound exploration of people dealing with Dissociative Identity Disorder. The author has a gift for writing prose that feels both lyrical and deeply human. The connection between the main characters is a palpable, serendipitous pull that you can feel through the pages and as the author states in their introduction, the narrative takes several influences from real life, which gives this an emotional and deeply personal rawness that resonates throughout the book. While it may not be for everyone, and there are some rather serious moments that will break your heart, this book is truly a gift.
