Check out my review and two teasers here: http://frommetoyouvideophoto.blogspot.com/2012/05/feasted-on-her-best-friends-br... Love always wins out in the end. No matter what you tell yourself, your heart wants, what your heart wants and you can't change it's mind. Libby has always been in love with her best friend's older brother Tony. Tony has always been in love with his little sister's best friend Libby. Through out the years their love grows stronger... only problem is their both either too scared, dumb, or prideful to tell the other. Miscommunication after another, mixed with lies, and pretending and it seems these two will never find true happiness. It was hard not to love this book. You find yourself routing so hard core for the two of them to just be together.. and then when it happens.. it's magical.. until it's not anymore. I love Tony.. a lot.. but.. I think he's a big dumb idiot because he could have had Libby.. Libby was always his and he was just to dumb to see it. I felt as though Libby's character was very relatable and lovable. "I think we should get married." -Tony Reactions: II found this book on Amazon in the recommendations based on my reading and research. After downloading the first chapter on my Kindle, I was excited. The few lines made me smile and I wanted a good story without complication. I got it! I was spoiled: a story of losing the head about that I'm quickly become addict to! I loved the beginning of this funny and enjoyable novel. The flashbacks that reveal the childhood memories, associated with the Marchetti family, are touching and amusing. The author gives us the impression of being a little mouse and follow the adventures of Libby as if we were in the room. I liked the words and emotions comes to me through the pages and captivate me. I also liked to follow the evolution of the characters over time. Often, the reader gets stuck at the time of the story asking himself: how the characters he has enjoyed will evolve ? Here we move from Libby's early years, to her teens until the reader discovers the young woman full of dreams and ambitions that she becomes. Through her eyes, we are also seeing the transformations of Tony and Mel. The fact that the author portrays Libby with a lot of principles, taste for sports and the love of studies, without her entourage making fun of her choices, was also an interesting way of showing strenght and resolution. For once, the heroine does not feel pressure to do "like everyone else," particularly in terms of her sex life. Libby pursues her way quietly and still focus on her desires, her dreams. Indeed, her persistence and perseverance pay in the last chapters of the book. By cons, if I was seduced by the consideration shown by Tony in wanting to let Libby make her own experiences and become more mature, the repetition of his indecision and the repeated use of "bad timing" quickly annoyed me. The white knight aspect worked perfectly the first time. The second time I found it frustrating. After, I almost wanted to stop my reading. Tony is truly immature for his age. Fortunately, I persevered and I was delighted with the outcome. The last part, after Libby's return from Italy, the story becomes, again, charming, funny and romantic. Tony is lucky to have stumbled upon patient, loving and compassioned woman like Libby or it could have ended old boy … Overall this book is very friendly and the author has the gift to immerse the reader in the heart of the emotions of her characters. So, I spent a good and amusing moment with this book. Because of it, I decided to continue discovering the work of TJ Dell by reading: "Whispers in the woods." "Her best friend's brother" a great read for lovers of great stories that could be simple but are complicated... Lol!

After all the time spent with Tony and Libby dancing around each other, the ending was very anti-climactic and down right rushed. ( )
