He walked across the room and opened the door. “C’mon. You’ve gotta be hungry.” “Where are you going?” Flynn was the kind of man that could not be pinned down; it would be like trying to chain a rainbow or a breeze to earth. Even though Flynn could not promise her any future, Mia had complete faith in him knowing that he would never hurt her. The best he could promise was that he would not leave her. That's why it was so devastating when suddenly he was just gone without a word of explanation leaving Mia to agonize over her lost love and wondering how she would take her next breath never mind getting on with her life. The hell if I’m not. I usually sit up there,” he said, nodding to the top row. A small group of girls were staring at me, and I noticed an empty chair in the center. Oh, er...general ed, for now.

Travis burst into laughter, shaking his head. “Just come over. I won’t even flirt with you, I swear.” Kit, Borys (July 26, 2012). "Studios in Bidding War for 'Fifty Shades'-Lite Novel 'Beautiful Disaster' ". The Hollywood Reporter . Retrieved June 12, 2021. At fist I wasn't sure about this book. It had it's share of flaws. The dialog didn't quite delivery but at the same time I was hanging on ever word. The writing is promising and has random moments of brilliance but then it would drag in a few chapters making it seem flat. While Flynn's story is obviously tragic and broke my heart it felt forced or maybe to much to believe. Mia has to be a saint to actually want to hold on to someone so damaged. I don't think I would be able to under all those circumstances. Add a bunch of murdered girls, an obsessively controlling best friend with the whodunit finger pointing to the only badass in town and it just seemed so off balanced and everywhere. I am a 21 year old male who sees my local Barnes and Noble as my favorite store in existence. For, I'd say 13 or so years, my library has consisted of a plethora of YA fiction, mostly in the vein of Potter, Twilight and so on. Every so often, in the last few months, more specifically, I would find myself hurtling down the adult fiction section, spurred by my urge to read an "adult novel" both to expand my literary journey and to make my 23 year old sister stop her "you only read kids books" mantra, I understand it's a joke and there is nothing wrong with reading them at any age, but it still hurt. I firstly found A Discovery of Witches, by Debora Harkness, Angelolgy by Danielle Trusonni and The Thirteenth Tale by Diane Setterfield, all excellent novels. After finishing those three within a few months my hunger for more seemed to be unable to be satiated. So I found myself at the new fiction table where I discovered, Beautiful Disaster.

I looked to America, who shrugged. “Nose bleed. You haven’t seen one of Abby’s famous nose bleeds?”I read it in a span of three days unable to put it down. It was it my first "romantic" fiction novel, if you will, the closest to which I had gotten was "they made out with the passion of two lovers" the farthest most YA novels go. So to see a relationship both sexually and romantically develop and manifest in such a way is, for loss of a better term, refreshing. So, Ms. Spinella, I thank you for a novel I greatly enjoyed and will recommend to all. The way Laura Spinella weaves her prose is something done by the masters of the literary word and for this to be her first novel is honestly astounding. I cannot wait to read what she puts out next. I waited for him to laugh, or to show some sign that he was joking, but his expression was sincere. I raised an eyebrow. “You’re going to help me with my paper.”

I didn’t want to be like the other scores of girls at Eastern that blushed in his presence. I didn’t want him to affect me in that way at all.

I rounded the corner to see America standing with Finch outside our dormitory. The three of us ended up at the same table at freshman orientation, and I knew he would be the welcome third wheel to our well-­‐oiled machine.

Travis leaned so close that I could feel his breath on my cheek. “I’m sorry...did I offend you in some way?” Mia- ever present by Flynn's bed side connects us to the past and the now. Was what they shared all just a dream? Was it ever real? Is is possible that a love so strong and so wrong can survive everything or was it all just some Beautiful Disaster...?
