I particularly enjoyed the descriptions of complicated emotions which captured well how tricky it is for young people to navigate relationships where strong feelings take centre stage and/or dominate decision making. It is also a story about young people approaching the next stage of their lives, making choices, feeling daunted yet excited about what the future holds.Įbony LaDelle has written an authentic novel rich in the language of the lived experience of young people. Broadcaster Prince, on the other hand, is an acknowledged expert on romance, giving out relationship advice on the radio, all the while flummoxed by the lukewarm response to his feelings from Dani.Īs much as it is a love story, Love Radio is also a book which examines all sorts of relationships from romance, to friendship and family. A previous unresolved experience makes writer, Dani, hesitant, unwilling to allow herself to be vulnerable. For the main characters, Dani and Prince, their initial attraction is no guarantee of a smooth path to romance.

Love Radio is a great read about relationships. Sometimes the best love story is the one you write yourself. So she gives Prince just three dates to convince her that he's worth falling for. When the two meet, sparks fly - but Dani's not looking to get derailed. She's focused on her plan to move to New York City to become a famous author, and avoiding dealing with what happened at that party a few months ago. But his own love life is looking kind of quiet. Prince Jones is passionate about music and romance, dishing out relationship advice on his Love Radio show.
