VBT# June 9th - Emma Goliesh



June 9th

Review: June 9th - Emma Goliesh - October 2015

June 9th was the date my life crashed all around me, the date where I couldn't live a sane life anymore - a date where I first discovered that love really can make someone crazy, even fall onto the mental institution train. June 9th by Emma Goliesh reminded me of a teen book called Just South of Biloxi, a book where a girl had fallen in love with her best friend. The thoughts though that surrounded love had caused her to look from the outside as a crazy woman. In June 9th we meet Lacey whom is a college girl who life revolves around studying and making sure she gets good grades, she is the type of girl who admires guys from afar as she has never had a boyfriend - she is the type of girl that yearns for their attention, but if it did happen to her she wouldn't know how to handle it -which is why I assumed the author steered her down the path of crazy in love.  Blake is your college rock god and by rock god, I mean he is the hottest guy on campus but he also plays in a band and is the guy every girl wants to be with. At first, we watch as Lacey is the type the observes and can't see why girls fall for his charm but as the novel goes along, she gets sucked down the rabbit hole where she is part of Blake's world and after a few blissful college days with Blake, she finds herself consumed with love for Blake to the point of obsessiveness and therefore sends her into a spiralling basketcase. When Lacey's world starts crashing down around her and fast , can she claw her way back to reality or has love got her stuck in a continual daze of her own mind ? Can she find her way back to what's real or will Lacey be left with a cycle of emotions when Blake decides to pop back into her life ?
Find out in this pyschological love story about Obsession, Madness and the blurred lines between Reality and Fantasy.
It all happens on "June 9th" by Emma Goliesh .
