#ToSeeYou-Email

Sometime last year, I read this book called Verite and loved it and so immediately, I had to google up who is this Rachel Blaufeld. And sure enough, my obsession for her books didn’t stop after I fell head over heels in love with her Crossroad Series. I thought nothing could top my love for the Crossroad Series but I was wrong. Rachel Blaufeld has truly outdone herself with her latest release, To See You.

Okay, more funny than annoying. More like refreshing. Different. Exciting. But as I stand next to him now, he’s giving me head-to-toe tingles, and I find myself dwelling on his e-mails. ”

Rachel Blaufeld if you are reading this review. I want to say that I see you. (fyi- not in that stalkerish way..lol) I see how talented you are as an author. I see that you write all your stories full of heart and raw emotions. And I see that you continue to make me a fan of your books. And most importantly, I see that you wrote one of my favorite summer reads of 2016.

I met the guy on a plane in a down time in my life, and despite the fact that I wasn’t nice to him, he pursued me through e-mail. I had to be the dumbest girl in America despite all my academic and business success.”

Do you believe in kismet? Meeting a stranger and knowing that this person could be someone? A friend maybe? Or even a lover? A soul mate? Well To See You by Rachel Blaufeld explores that theme of kismet and meant to be. But what happens when you judge a person based on their appearance? Will you base your judgement on logic or heart? And so Ms. Blaufeld will bring forth a story that weaves kismet, destiny, fate, coincidences or whatever you like to call them into the forefront of how we see strangers.

Have you ever judge a person by their appearance? I know I have in the past and I am very ashamed of that. And so Ms. Blaufeld will take her readers down a journey where readers will sit back and truly see how hurtful it can be. When Charli Richards boarded on her flight back to New York, she never thought the stranger sitting next to her could be the one. For one, he was not her type. He was big and is everything what her friends and mother would not consider ideal. But for some strange reason, Layton Griffin made her feel normal and special.

 photo cde17ac4f61c5608f95b51bc0bb1e4_zpsybgfh1jf.gif“Charli, I’ve wanted to date you since you sat down in seat 2C. Are you not catching on to that? It’s still me, Layton, and I’m still desperately trying to woo you. There may have been dates but there’s been zero wooing. Only hoping for you.”

Charli is not perfect. For one, she is kind of a snob. She judges people and makes assumptions. Simply, she was a bitch in the first half of the book. But for some reason, Layton Griffin didn’t see Charli as that. He saw a woman that he likes and wants to get to know. So when Layton sends her an email, they soon begin to form an online friendship. As much as Charli enjoys getting emails and talking to Layton, she puts a halt to any chance starting a romantic relationship. Charli would remind herself that Layton is not the guy that she should be with.

#ToSeeYou

Being the nice guy, Layton would still email and check up on her. And when he finally started to break down her walls, Charli would once again distance herself and leave Layton hanging. Will Charli finally see Layton? Truly see him not just as a friend but see him as something more?

I have so much love for Rachel Blaufeld for writing To See You. Seriously, I love this book so much. Not only was Layton Griffin book husband material but I love the message of this book. I love that Ms. Blaufeld showcased a story that was utterly raw and stripped it’s characters bare allowing reading to see their imperfections, flaws, and vulnerabilities. This book truly took the message to see. To see that we should not judge a person. To see that our imperfections makes us perfect. To see that no one can make you happy unless you learn how to be happy. And most importantly, to see that fate has a funny way of bringing people together. All there is left to say, go fall in love with Rachel Blaufeld’s beautiful and heartfelt prose and see a beautiful love story in the making. To every Charli out there in the world, I hope you will find and see your very own Layton Griffin. In the meantime, Rachel Blaufeld I am claiming Layton all to myself. <3
