A Date for Hannah by Callie Henry - Reshelved Books

Hellooooo everybody!

We were reached out by an awesome team to review A Date for Hannah by Callie Henry. (Who happens to be New York Times Bestselling Author Katy Regnery!!)

Stock Imagine for "A Date with Hannah" cover

In the beginning of a July, we were able to post the cover reveal (just a cool experience!).  Earlier this month, we received a copy of A Date for Hannah.  Which I have to say that I’ve been waiting for since we had posted the cover and I got to read the synopsis of the book.  (On a side note: the cover is beautiful!)

Hannah Giacomina is down in California for the weekend of her sister, Bree's wedding.  So, Hannah isn't alone and the only one under the age of 30 at the wedding, Bree enlists the help of 17 year old Liam to keep Hannah company. 

Little does Liam know, he starts to fall for Hannah.  With the intense connection that is felt between the both of them, Hannah starts to fall for Liam too. 

Hannah accidentally hears between Bree and her friend, Abby that Liam was essentially HIRED for solely that night for Hannah.  Like anyone, Hannah is horribly upset when she finds out.  Not only is she understandably upset at Bree but she's also upset with Liam.  Now, Hannah doesn't know what to think!

And really, who could blame her? 

Hannah and Liam had both confided in one and another and they both let their guards down. 
Liam told Hannah all about his past and Hannah told Liam that she didn’t think anyone was capable of loving her because of her size. 

That’s intense stuff to be sharing right away with someone who you just met. 

One thing that I liked about the story was that it tackled how being self conscious can really steer your direction and the choices you make. The affect that it had on Hannah. How she felt that a guy would be in capable of loving her because she was a size 16. 

I was sad to see that was happening because I was happy for Hannah as time went on and how she was able to believe in herself and how Liam helped her see herself in a different light. 

Now. Liam. 

His past consisted of a mistake. Regnery showed how one mistake can turn into something so big and life changing. 

As the reader, you feel bad for Liam too.  One mistake and his entire life shifted - changing not for the better. 

Deep down though, Liam is a good guy.  He won Hannah over in ways that would make ALL girls swoon!  The manner in which he won (? maybe... You'll have to read the book to find out!) was adorable.  It was romantic and super heartwarming. 

Without giving too much of the book away! I hope I didn't give too much of it away :/

I give A Date for Hannah 5 coffee beans out of 5! It was a quick read, that was cute and meaningful. Henry (Regnery) definitely packed a lot of punch into this book.  It covers everything from love to honesty to sadness.

Go and grab yourself a copy.  It's the first book in a series of 3 books (Love is for Everyone).
