THE REALITY OF EVERYTHING
(Flight & Glory #5)
by Rebecca Yarros
Release Date: August 24th
MY REVIEW
AVAILABLE NOW!!
Blurb
Two years after the man she loved was killed in Afghanistan, Morgan Bartley is trying to put the pieces of her life back together. The reno on her dilapidated beach house in the Outer Banks might be just the distraction she needs to keep her debilitating anxiety attacks at bay and begin to heal her heart...if she can ignore the ridiculously handsome guy next door.
At twenty-eight, single-dad Jackson Montgomery’s life revolves around his five-year-old daughter and his job as a search-and-rescue pilot for the coast guard. He’s no stranger to saving a damsel in distress, and though his gorgeous new neighbor is clearly in distress, she’s no damsel. She’s stubborn as hell with walls a mile thick, and the dog tags hanging from her rearview mirror give him a pretty good clue as to why.
It doesn’t matter that their attraction is undeniable—she swore she’d never fall for another pilot, let alone a military man. There are some wounds time can’t heal, and some fears too consuming to conquer.
She’s a barely breathing heartbreak on the edge of recovery.
He’s a crash waiting to happen.
Together they could have it all...if they can endure the coming storm.

It
feels like a lifetime ago that I picked up the first Flight and Glory series
and fell in love with Rebecca Yarros's writing. And I have read every book as
she has written them. She is right at the top of my one click authors list. But for some weird, me, reason I wasn't able
to read Hallowed Ground. It had been so long since I had read the first book
and I felt like I would need to do a series re-read and I just haven't had the
emotional fortitude or alone time to do it.
But
when I found out this one was being released and I ascertained it could be read
as a standalone I was all in. And a stay in a 5 star resort with no kids and a
few cocktails absolutely helped. First I need to say that I adore Rebecca Yarros, I truly
believe that there isn't another author who gives every word the weight she
does. But oh my god does it take her long enough to write them. Seriously.
Although, now I need to do a series re-read because I HAVE to read Hallowed Ground even though I am already destroyed from the events that occurred in it
to form this one.
I guess for now I should actually address Morgan and Jackson and how absolute
beautiful, painful, devastating and awe inspiring their story was. I am lying
here at 4am after not having been able to put the book down from the second I
started it. The book gave me all the feels and then some. I am still feeling
Morgan's pain and the strength it took to put herself back together. Jackson
was beyond perfect.
The
whole story was amazing and I am so glad that I had the opportunity to read it
when I could lie in bed sobbing like a baby with no distractions. And now I
have to try get some sleep with a book hangover I'm going to be feeling for
days. This book is one of my 2020 favourite reads but I highly recommend going in with a full box of tissues and an emotional support animal.

I have been
dying for this book since I finished Eyes Turned Skyward. I fell in love with this
series from the start and I swear it just keeps getting better with every book.
I knew
Grayson’s story was going to be a hard one but I didn’t expect it to be so completely
soul destroying. I made the mistake of starting this book after dinner and then
I couldn’t put it down. I have honestly woken up with a book hangover after
crying until 4am.
It was
obviously going to be an emotional read based on what little we knew of Grayson.
He was such a closed off arsehole, I just knew he was going to have the mother
of all reasons and Damn if Rebecca didn’t completely deliver.
What would
you do if you waited 5 years for a miracle you spent every minute praying for and
living for only to have a new miracle drop into your arms when you least expect
it.
And how
would you choose if the miracle you always wanted came true and the miracle you
never asked for were both yours for the taking?
Ordinarily
this would be a theme that wouldn’t work for me but it was so beautifully
written and told with such honesty and love that I was so completely invested
in the story I never had a chance to feel anything but heartbroken for the amazing,
perfectly broken characters and all they went through and were going through.
Sam was so
strong and beautiful inside and out and I wanted her to get all that she
deserved and more.
This series
is my absolute favourite ugly cry of the year and if you haven’t started it yet
you need to get on it right now.
Check out
my reviews for them here
So
it took me forever to finally read Full Measures and when I did I could have
kicked myself, I absolutely adored it but I still wasn't ready to jump right
into this one. I needed a bit to recover and prepare myself for the depth of
emotion this series makes me feel.
On
top of that I was expecting a love triangle after reading the blurb and that's
not really my thing. Except then I saw the next one is releasing soon and I
just had to do it. So here we are.
First
let me say Rebecca nailed it. Whenever there's a series of NA books like this I
always go in half expecting the second one not to be as awesome as the first. I
mean we all know lightning doesn't strike twice so what are the odds if the
second book making me feel as much as the first one?
Well
this one I think was even better. Maybe because the angst was more personal to
the characters or maybe because paisley was so trapped by her circumstances
rather than just by her thoughts. I honestly don't know but Damn did it all
work.
And
it really didn't hurt that jagger hit all my panty melting buttons. Sweet Jesus
that boy was fine. And sweet and determined and everything you want in a NA
book boyfriend.
And
the two of them together was so beautiful, yet so broken I just wanted to wrap
them up and keep them forever.
If
you haven't yet read this series I honestly can't recommend it more for an
angsty, ugly cry book that will make you smile for days.
Check
out my review of Full Measures
Now
one click them both. Grab the tissues and the wine (the whole bottle you won't
want to put the book down to refill and you will need it) and go curl up with
these beautiful couples now.
