We Were Here eBook Daisy Prescott
We Were Here is one of those books that I put off reading. The reason being, I didn't want to read it and be done with it. Truth be told, there are very few authors whose books I procrastinate reading for this reason. Daisy Prescott is on that very short list.I fell in love with Daisy Prescott and the Geoduck crew two years and I love that she has written a book that has reopened the Geoduck world, in a way that I'd never thought possible. First of all, WWH is written in SEVEN points of view. Seven characters and seven different voices. When do you ever get that? When do you get to go back and read an origin story like this? It's pretty epic if you ask me.
On top of it being written in all different POVs, it's set in the early 90s and everything about that feels completely organic and stripped down to what matters. No texting, no Facebook just music and relationships. When I look back at high school (class of 1992) and college (97) every single memory had a song attached to it. I can listen to Spotify today and hear a song and be struck completely dumb because music from the eighties and nineties is so closely woven into my experiences then. Can you say mixtape?
Each chapter of WWH is a different song title and there are some that are real memory makers for me and this book in many ways plucks at every string I have. Prescott created a close- knit group of friends in Geoducks and in WWH we experience who they were and how their group came to be. WWH also takes us along for the ride as each character experiences that first non-high school/college relationship /crush/hook up experience. In some way, every one of those characters is greatly influenced by the experience. Didn't we all have those? The person we met before we met the "one". Each and every character in WWH has a similar experience and it shaped who we meet in Geoducks.
We get the origin story of Ben and Jo, the intense and sometimes murky friendship of Gil and Maggie. (GilandMaggie4ever) I LOVED seeing the evolution of those friendships and relationships. Selah, Lizzy, and Quinn meet those people that really make you stop and examine what you want in a relationship.
Now, you do not have to have read Geoducks to get WWH. In fact, as soon as I finished WWH, I went straight to Geoducks. As I said, it had been two years and I had this new reference point to see the characters and to experience some things that I did not see coming. (Cryptic, I know.)
If you haven't read Daisy Prescott, please give her a try.
In a world of overdone, tropetastic, neverending stepbrothers, billionaires and alphas, Prescott is writing real experiences and taking us back to places and times we treasure visiting every single time. She will make you laugh (always), make you cry (sometimes) but you'll always be happier and enriched for the reading experience.

We Were Here by Daisy Prescott
4 stars!!!
“Friendship before hormones.”
Daisy Prescott transported me back to the nineties in this prequel to Geoducks Are for Lovers. With song titles for chapter names I found myself singing along as I was treated to the trials and tribulations of several friends from their first till last year of college. For so many POV’s this book should have been confusing but the way that the story was set up and told made it understandable and was easy to follow although I will admit at times I was gutted when we moved from one person to another, I just wanted more of some of the character’s stories. However, there are the other books in this series that I have not read and those I cannot wait to read. So, if like me you haven’t read Geoducks Are for Lovers, don’t panic!! Put it this way, if it was not for an intense reading schedule I would be reading Geoducks right NOW!!
“Where there was hope, existed possibility. I’d been living in Hopeville for the last two years. Also known as the Land of Friends.”
I loved the nineties, they were my teenage years and do hold some fond memories, from mix tapes, to girlie nights with the Brat Pack and makeup sleepovers. For me this was a trip down memory lane and I had so many smiles and giggles as so many things brought back vivid memories and resonated deep within my own personal experiences. But seeing college life from start to finish with these characters was heart-warming and incredibly addicting.
“You’re stuck with me. I’m like gay glue.”
All the characters were your average Joe Blogs that were written with honesty and intense likeability and even though each person had their own section, in so few pages Daisy Prescott managed to give her character’s depth and absolutely nailed character connection. All characters appear throughout the entire book so you don’t lose them completely but the focus and emphasis moves from one to the other.
“When I grew up, I wanted to still be friends with these people. More than friends. We were family.”
From the first day of college, when you know no-one and are wandering around trying to find your place in the grand old scheme of things life has a way of throwing you a life line and sometimes they take the form of people, one person can make such a huge difference and these people were in the right place at the right time and forged such strong friendships, friendships that I can see lasting a life time.
This was a time when friendships were formed face to face rather than through Facebook and a smartphone, where people actually met up to talk and you actually socialised (shock horror!!). So whether you are young or old there is something for everyone, the youngsters needing a history lesson or us oldies just wanting to relive our youth once again.
“Doesn’t matter what the future holds for us. For now we’re here. In the moment. Together.”
So, now it looks like I have another three books to read as I desperately want to reconnect with these character twenty years on, will the romances started have the legs and will the ones that got away come back to haunt them. I have so many questions I need answers to as a non-reader of the series so far, however I could imagine that for those that have read this series this will add more depth and give you a greater understanding of how fantastic friendships were formed and stood the test of time.
5 I LOVE the 90's stars
I had no idea what to expect when starting We Were Here. It was a kindle freebie that sounded intriguing, and being a child of the 90's felt like it would be a little nostalgic.
This is probably one of my favorite books I have read this year! It is unique in its story, yet has every NA story line in it! There is the friends to more, the rich bad guy and the good girl, the gay best friend, the troubled and sassy female man eater.... and so so much more!
We Were Here follows a group of friends through their college years... in their perspective. It has part of the story from each friends POV. It is a lol funny story of friendship, love won and lost, heart break, and that age where you are on the cusp of the rest of your life and the world is a big adventure.
I fell in love with ALL of the characters, their witty banter, and amazing personalities. This book gives you the gamut of emotions from hope, angst, heart break, loneliness, nostalgia.... the list could go on and on.
We Were Here is a prequel to the book Geo Ducks are for lovers... but could also be read as a stand alone.
I really and truly feel like I am babbling like a fool over this book, it was truly THAT good. If you are looking for a great read, something different than everything else you are reading, something that will make you feel and laugh and love, then this is the book for you!!
