If Birds Fly Back Carlie Sorosiak Books

Loved it!!! I read a lot, especially books that make me think and transport me into the writers world and that's what happened. I saw some reviews before this book came out and thought I'd give it a shot.
The love story is really sweet and believable. Like others have said, Sebastian is adorable and I can relate to Linny. I think other readers will relate to Linny too because everyone, at least everyone I know, has experienced family pressures, loneliness, and loss. The author did a great job of handling several hard topics (I won't give them away). At times the narrative is laugh out loud funny (I especially love the line about the pizza). I also LOVED how the author handled the science parts. Plus I really liked getting to know who Linny is and who Sebastian is, and who the other characters are, without being outright told who they are by the author. (The author required me to really think about the characters as I would think about people I was getting to know in person. I think it's a gamble that the author took, and it worked for me.) Looking forward to reading more books by this author.

If Birds Fly Back Carlie Sorosiak Books Reviews

If Birds Fly Back was entirely super cute! It featured a bunch of nerds and an adorakble friendship-turned-romance with plenty of bantering dialogue — HERE ARE A FEW OF MY FAVOURITE THINGS BASICALLY. The only downside of my reading experience was dropping it on my face while being absorbed by these delicious words. Thank you to all the universe, stars, and pebbles upon the shores that I read a paperback and didn’t die or lose my eyes over a hardcover. Life can be kind.

It’s dual narrated by both Linny and Sebastian. And I can’t even pick a favourite! THEY’RE SO CUTE. Linny is totally obsessed with film and Sebastian is into astrophysics. I love how their individual chapters included either scientific facts or snippets of a screenplay being written. It turned them into individuals and made their passions really interwoven with the plot line. My only problem was since they’re both 1st person, I felt their voices were pretty similar. But Linny was a bit anxious and Sebastian was an absolutely exploding piece of rainbow confetti. So I loved them! They were both diverse, too, with Sebastian being Mexican and Linny biracial with a Nigerian mother.

The story is basically all about missing people. And birds. But more like metaphorical birds. Except for the part where a bird poops in Sebastian’s hair and duuuuuude. I feel so bad for you. Birds are nasty.

Linny’s sister disappeared and Sebastian is looking for his never-before-met-dad. But since the tone of the book was pretty happy and quirky and light, I did actually fail to feel like really emotionally caught up in the missing people. I can see Linny’s suffering with her sister just having vanished, but the rest of the story was so funny?!?? I was thoroughly enjoying it, but my heart strings didn’t get pulled.

I loved the scenes were Sebastian and Linny just hung out and were DORKS together. Putting stars on ceilings. Making terrible Mexican food. Being super awkward. IT WAS SO SWEET! Most of the book is set in an old-people’s home where they’re volunteering for the summer and caring for an old famous writer, which didn’t really interesting me? But it was never boring! I had SUCH fun reading! Until, you know, I brained myself with this book. Then I read on, slightly bitter, but still pleased at least they were having a nice time.

I will definitely say this is a super cute tale!

It reminded me of An Abundance of Katherine‘s meets When Dimple Met Rishi. And THE NERDOM LEVELS WERE GREAT. I loved the snippet’s of Linny’s screen play and I learned SO many science facts thanks to Sebastian. Like I’ve totally forgotten them all now, but my memory is akin to a dead french fry. So. It was great at the time.

Fun dialogue! Fun banter! Their relationship was so well done, with ups and downs and awkward cuteness and I rooted for them! Definitely chase this one day if you’re after a summery fun read that is like popsicles and sprinkles with a side dish of NICE PAIN.

Also chase after it if you want to read about two dorks who hide in a cupboard rather than socialise at a party. #Relatable
Great read! Enjoyed this book tremendously and passed it on to a friend who enjoyed it as well.
Cleverly written coming-of-age story that will suck you in regardless of age. It was the perfect vacation read. What makes this novel unique is the multi-dimensional story-telling the narrative is alternately told from the two main characters points of view, then you have a parallel screenplay weaving into the mix along with physics theorems that are actually relatable (ha!). This unusual variety makes for rich plot development, no doubt complimented by the author's witty, colorful humor sprinkled throughout. Highly recommend!
If this is not in your shopping cart, what are you waiting for? 1. You probably need a book with a beautiful cover on your book shelf. 2. You actually need to read books, I know it's on your resolution list. 3. It's a wonderful read and it's probably one of the best books you're going to buy.

No lie, I read this book in 3 days. Linny and Sebastian are two kids awkwardly growing up and finding who they are (aren't we all). There's a genius to the balance of loss and hope in the novel. It's witty and well written. I can't wait for more books from Carlie Sorosiak!
