Here is the disclaimer that Angela N. Blount is a friend of mine on Goodreads, and that she provided me a free ecopy of this book.

I will say that I like the author's writing style quite a bit, and not just because she is my friend. Though after reading these, I would want her to be my friend if she wasn't already - the autobigraphical character in her stories really rings true, someone that I would like to know. As such, it's a character driven story and Blount's skill at bringing out her characters echoes heavily.

This was a shorter book than its predecessor, Once Upon a Road Trip. It was longer than an epilogue but shorter than a sequel of equal importance to the original story would have been. It completes the story (for now) begun in the first book and is good closure after reading that.

That said, it's not quite as engaging for me as the first book. It's just as well-written, but I think the style of third person interspersed with diary entries worked so well in that first book. This one is told entirely as a series of journal entries. It works too, just doesn't have that same movie-quality road tripping ambience. This was a little more of a romance story, where the first felt like a life-story/coming of age adventure. All of this isn't criticism, just insight as to whioh book I prefer as a reader.

Still, this was a satisfying read at a good length - not too long, and not too brief. Once more I'm impressed with Angela Blount's easy flowing, personal narrative voice. I'll be looking forward to more of her work in the future.

Angela, thank you once more for the ebook copies, and for sharing such personal moments with your readers.

Once Upon an Ever After Once Upon a Road Trip Volume 2 Angela N Blount 9780989580960 Books Reviews

I loved the authors memoir “Once Upon A Road Trip”so much, but THIS!!!!! Young love at it's finest. I was so giddy for them as I read both books, it was so sweet. Seriously, if you haven't read the first book, do so, and then read this one!

What a great and inspiring story for any couple! Whether they be young, have a long-distance relationship, or both. “Once Upon An Ever After” is a beautiful love story that just goes to show, if you put all that you have into something you want badly enough and believe in yourselves...anything is possible, and that's exactly what these two young lovers did!

I was nervous for Vince when he arrived at Angeli's house, him meeting her family and quirky friends, especially her father, because let's be honest, meeting the girls dad...intimidating stuff! Ha!!! Since she met him at his house while on her road trip, she already had a head-start on seeing how and where he grew up, so with him visiting her in her familiar surroundings and how she grew up, I'm sure it helped him gain more perspective about her.

I can relate to this type of situation myself , having had a lot of online friends from gaming and reading groups. Once you meet and put a face to either the voice you've spoken to or words you've typed to each other for years, and discover their mannerisms, etc...it's very neat!

One part in this book where the author mentions coping with betrayal by means of having a bonfire...I have done this, and it DOES help!!! Just thought I'd throw that in there )

You both got your “Happily Ever After” , and I'm so happy for you! Thank you for sharing your stories with us!

Btw, do you miss the snow yet? =P
Once again, like the first book, not a lot happens. It is the story of the courtship and engagement of the love interest she met on her road trip. Like most of us who are married, we all have a similar story, though often it is not exactly book material. Grammatically it is well written, and the outcome is nice, but it is just an average story. If anything it finished off the last book, though this book is a lot smaller than the first.
I fell in live with all of the characters right away. Couldn't put it down. Stumbled onto this little set by accident but very glad I did!!
Well written such as it is, lots of young emotion very cute story just not my cup of tea.
I found Angie to be daring as she toured the country on her own. In today's world it seems very brave for a young girl to travel on her own. I guess you have to put all your faith in God to guide and protect you. I'm not so sure I could have done that. I'm happy that you found your soul mate and are enjoying writing about your journey. I look forward to reading more of your books.
Be sure to read the books in the order they’re written. Once Upon an Ever After is the sequel to Once Upon a Road Trip. Both books are based on the writer’s true life events. Fresh out of high school, Angela sets out on the road trip of her life to meet friends she’s known on face book for years. The first book is an account of her trip, and the people she meets, including the one special guy she wants in her life. It’s good, but the second book is my favorite, because in it, she paints a beautiful picture of the long distance relationship with their love for each other shining through.
