Romantic Twisted Gripping Epistolary Wave.

EVERY SEVENTH WAVE:

                                   A sequel to the international bestseller "love virtually" follows up the  email affair of Emma and Leo.

                                  Emma, 35-year-old, married to an older man who has two kids. she has an email relationship with Leo. Leo flys off to Boston as the result of Emma's husbands intervention.this concludes "Love Virtually".

                                "Every Seventh Wave" starts three weeks after "Love Virtually". as Emma desperately emailing to Leo's  "moved" mail address. after a couple of pages, Leo returns from Boston and their relationship "sort of" resumes.

                                 Leo found a new love interest Pamela during his stay in Boston, this complicated "Leo-Emmi" relationship, after few "real" meetups and one hookup the book ends with a happy note.

                                  The book follows the same epistolary writting as its precessorder which made the book "beautiful", really compelling. there are several time gaps and jumps, cliches and amazing metaphors/anecdotes. the book is filled with oozing romantic dialogue result of the exceptional translation.

                                The book, in general, s very compelling, grips you to very page, but after a while it gets sort of boring, lags here and there ends in a most fictional wave possible.

                                I loved this book very much, I would give a number one position of all romantic novels I have read. recommended to all.
