Rating: 4 out of 5

When a story starts out with a prologue that is two suicide notes you know it’s going to be a good one! Shine and “Moon”(Ryker) have been best friends since they were very young.“I know why your name is Shine. It’s because your eyes shine as bright as the stars.”-MoonNow they are in High School and still close as ever. Shine is betrayed by an adult in her life the worst way possibly. Pushing away her family, friends and the one person that means the most to her she makes a heartbreaking decision. This is a story that deals with tragedy, loss, love, and lifetime friendship.I LOVED Moon’s character! It was so obvious to everyone how much he cared for Shine throughout the entire story. I LOVED how loyal, understanding, and sweet he was. Shine was a likeable character but completely oblivious to the depth of Moon’s love for her. As the story went along I was surprised how much she did not annoy me. The only thing that bothered me with the plot/story was a scene with “Johnny” that went too far and was completely unnecessary. All in all I enjoyed this book. It’s fairly short and if you are in the mood for an emotional read give Moonshine a try <3
