Ride or Die

“One broken rule opens doors for many more.”

I received this ARC copy of Ride or die from SOHO Press and Netgalley.

I completely inhaled this book, I absolutely adored it!
The main character, Loli, was an amazing character! She was very interesting and just iconic really.

“Running away in third grade wouldn’t have been as iconic without my Paciotti flipflops; car surfing wouldn’t have been worth it without my Versace pumps.”

I loved the idea and the plot points of the game between her and MV/X, whilst they were strangers, or at least kind of strangers. I found myself thinking about this book whenever I wasn’t reading it and trying to guess who MV/X was. I didn’t end up guessing it right.

I enjoyed seeing the character progression in Loli, from the beginning where she was quite carefree to seeing her gradually become nervous and developing some sort of feelings towards MV/X

I was completely gripped by the entire of this book and didn’t want to stop reading it all really.

“I also feel sad for those who send messaged in bottles. I doubt a single one of them ever got what they wanted.”

I loved the fact that each chapter was names after a song on Ryan’s yearly song of the day playlist. It linked in nicely with the ending.

“You’re scared to wait for moments because you’re afraid they’ll never come.”

I loved the front cover so much! The vibrant red really pops out and the graphics are absolutely beautiful! I will definitely have to buy a physical copy of this book when it comes out, I need it on my shelf!!

“But I think we’ve both learned that you don’t always have to see something to appreciate it.”


I gave this book a 5⭐️ rating and definitely recommend it!
