This Could Be Us by Kennedy Ryan
Once in a while, you come across a book that leaves you with a deep sense of satisfaction after turning the last page. A story that hits different, one you’ll find yourself thinking about often in the days to come. This Could Be Us by Kennedy Ryan is that kind of book for me.
This is a story of a woman’s strength and resilience, a testament to a mother’s unconditional love. It’s Soledad’s story, but it’s also the story of so many women out there. I should know, as someone raised by a single mother, this story felt incredibly personal.
The narrative centers around Soledad’s healing journey, pacing it so beautifully that nothing ever feels rushed. As always, Kennedy Ryan brings her characters to life with such care and depth. I especially love how she consistently writes strong, empowered women while allowing them to fully embrace their vulnerabilities. That ending left me wanting more! I would have loved to see even more of Soledad and Judah’s blended family.
Kennedy Ryan never fails to deliver deeply moving and beautifully written stories, and This Could Be Us is no exception.
