TikTok Made Me Buy It: Why Say You Swear Should Be Your Next Read"

Alright, bestie, buckle up because I need to tell you about the book that TikTok made me buy—and I have no regrets.

So, you know how every time you scroll through your FYP, you get bombarded by the same book recommendations? Well, Say You Swear by Meagan Brandy was ALL over mine. It’s like the universe (and TikTok) kept telling me, "Girl, you need to read this." And after seeing a million people rave about it, I finally caved and picked it up. Let's just say: I did not expect to be emotionally obliterated in the best way possible.

Okay, let's talk about Nolan and Tori—our couple that is the emotional rollercoaster. Nolan is like the brooding, misunderstood bad boy who has more baggage than an airport carousel. And then there’s Tori, who’s this tough-as-nails girl with her own secret scars. The minute they meet, it’s like the universe just knows they’re supposed to be together, but oh, honey, it’s not all sunshine and rainbows. Their love is electric, messy, and soooo complicated.

What I loved about this book was how REAL these characters felt. Nolan isn’t some perfect swoon-worthy book boyfriend; he’s broken. So is Tori. They’ve both got issues, and that just made me root for them even harder. Seriously, their chemistry is off the charts, and the tension between them? It’s so thick you could cut it with a knife. You know that slow-burn that makes you agonizingly wait for the moment when they finally give in? This book has it in spades. I was holding my breath, like, when are they gonna kiss already?!

But here’s the thing, it’s not just about the romance—Say You Swear digs deep into the emotional stuff. It’s about healing, redemption, and how love doesn’t always fix everything, but it can definitely help you become a better version of yourself. Nolan and Tori are both on these personal journeys of growth, and seeing that unfold was just... wow. Like, I was rooting for them in a way I don’t even know how to explain. The way they grow together is honestly what makes this book stand out. It’s not just love; it’s transformation.

And then there’s the side characters. Ugh, I love them. It’s like you’re joining this group of friends who feel so real, with all their quirks, dynamics, and drama. The friendships, the rivalries, the family stuff—it all adds so much depth. I swear, the dialogue felt like I was listening in on my own friends’ conversations. You know that feeling when a book pulls you into its world? This one does it in the best way.

Now, let me just tease you about the ending. Because wow. I won’t spoil it, but let's just say it wrecked me in the best way. It’s heart-wrenching, emotional, and satisfying all at once. Meagan Brandy knows how to punch you in the gut and make you cry happy tears, all while leaving you with that giddy feeling that you just read something special.

So, yeah. Say You Swear is a book that sticks with you long after you close the pages. It’s messy and beautiful and emotional, and it’ll take you on a ride you won’t forget. If you’re looking for a book that’ll make you laugh, cry, and feel every single thing—this is your next read.

Honestly, get it now. TikTok wasn’t lying. You won’t regret it. Trust me, I’m officially obsessed.

Rating is 4/5
