The Avery Shaw Experiment Review

Today I am going to review The Avery Shaw Experiment by: Kelly Oram.

Avery Shaw is dealing with a broken heart in the only way she knows how – through science. With the help of the brother of the guy that broke her heart, Grayson, she will go through the seven stages of grief to prove if it applies to a broken heart and can get her over it. Little does she know that Grayson has another experiment in mind – winning her heart.

Once again, this book is another great one by Kelly Oram. So far she has not disappointed me with any of her books. Like all the rest I’ve read by her, I could not put this one down. Sure, it was a bit shorter than her other books (and I would have loved it to last even longer), but it was really good.

I absolutely loved reading the chapters from Grayson’s point of view. He’s definitely a guy, though, so his mind wasn’t quite ever out of the gutter, but he was funny and really cared about Avery. Underneath the playboy exterior, he had a heart of gold.

I did enjoy Avery, but sometimes I almost just wished it was Grayson’s point of view again. Don’t get me wrong, I definitely enjoyed her sections, but they just weren’t Grayson’s. I also really like that Kelly Oram didn’t create her perfect like so many authors tend to do. Avery has social anxiety and I think Kelly did an excellent job representing it and allowing Avery to move past it.

Libby was also a great character. She had no filter and I couldn’t help but laugh at everything she said. I can’t wait till the next book, so we can get to know her even more.

The ending was great, especially Grayson’s extra Epilogue, which really made me happy and satisfied with the book. Even though it will soon be part of a series, there was no cliff-hanger ending to drive you mad.

I really recommend this book to anyone who’s a fan of the fun, lighthearted teen dramas/romance. I can’t wait to read more of Kelly Oram’s books, she’s easily becoming one of my favorite authors.
