Review: Dear Banjo - Sasha Wasley
Willow Paterson aka Banjo and
Tom Forrest were the best of friends, and
they were inseparable growing up, and when they were fifteen, they made a blood pact never to fall in love with one
another. Years pass and they are now 18
years old, and Tom has kissed Willow as
he loves her and wants to be more than friends. To her, this was a full-on betrayal and the next day she disappears
off to College. Tom needs to explain to
her writes her letters for a whole year and then after that, he stopped, and the
pair never kept in contact. Tom changed and so did Willow as they got on
with their lives. Now ten years later Willow is back home as her Dad has
gotten ill and she is back to take over her Dad's Cattle farm. The thing is Tom
has taken over his family farm next door. We learn that though Tom wrote to Willow, she only ever read the first two
letters as they hurt her so much she never opened the other letters. She did, however, keep them, and now on her plane ride home,
she opens them but is it ten years too late?
As the story will go on, we read this
back and forward friendship between Willow and Tom and see that the chemistry
is still sizzling between the pair.
However, will Willow still be stuck in the past and not want anything more than
a friendship with Tom? How will Tom
react as he doesn't want his heart to break all over again and be back in the
frame of mind he was ten years ago?
Dear Banjo was a heartfelt, emotive read
and set in the outback of Australia. This
is the perfect read for those who love reading love letters from the past. How many ways do you love me ?
Let me write them a thousand times.
