Abstract of the book "My Brother's Friend"
Polina always hid her feelings for her brother's best friend, because to Ivan, she was just like a younger sister. Moreover, she was strictly forbidden from interacting with him because of his bad reputation. But that didn't stop her. She sought every opportunity to be close to Ivan until he started to realize that her presence meant much more to him than he could have ever imagined.

tamara-iurova22.11.2025, 20:12Oh, these Valeriyovychs… there are such unique characters who love to drink a bit of student blood☺️ but Ivan is no slouch, it seems the plan is already formed in his head and all that’s left is to execute it. You really know how to write so vividly that you believe every word. Thank you❤️

milana22.11.2025, 20:11Oh, I devoured this book in just one evening! The plot hooks you from the first pages — it never drags, the emotions are genuine, and the characters feel real. Thank you, author. I’m off to read your other books.

liuda-kravcenko22.11.2025, 14:48The book doesn't work for me if it's not in the first person. Sorry, it might be wonderful, but this is my opinion. I managed to read 2 chapters.
svitlana-bond24.11.2025, 01:11Lyuda Kravchenko, Thank you. I’ll think about it.
nadiia-ianus19.11.2025, 09:14The story isn't bad. I'm on chapter 11, but reading a book in the third person is very, very HARD!!! I would advise the author to write in the first person, meaning a chapter from Polina's perspective and a chapter from Ivan's perspective!

night-rain04.11.2025, 17:08You write very beautifully, I like it! Some moments, due to the similarity of life situations, make me recall my past and at the same time inspire deep reflections (for example, the story about the tragedy with Polina's friend, Ulyana)! At such times, I step away from the text and think about what I’ve read and the emotions that arose after reading. I believe this is very important for a writer - to be able to find the key to the reader’s heart, to evoke the right emotion! This shows the author’s skill! I say this from the bottom of my heart because I never write insincere comments! I’m even a little envious of your mastery;)) In a good way:)

Yeah, the story is told from both perspectives: Ivan's and Polina's - that's great, I love it because it helps to see the story from two sides!

I got so engrossed in reading that I didn’t notice how the day passed! Your book is very, very interesting!!! More interesting than some printed editions I spent my time on and, unfortunately, was disappointed by. But your book definitely hooked me, and I’m almost at the finish line! Finally, they kissed! And the fact that Polina is an admin adds a nice twist to her character, and they did a great job exposing that teacher! At first, I thought that teacher would be Mila’s father, but I guessed wrong :) I feel sorry for Gosh, I wonder why he got into drugs? Maybe there will be an explanation later.

An interesting type of main character. But I wouldn’t trust a person who cheats on his girlfriend. Why have a girlfriend then - break up with her. No matter how she is. Because it makes you think that if he cheats in this relationship (especially if it’s for some purpose), he might cheat in the next ones too. The only hope is that he will improve and change for the better.

Hmm, I expected the story to be focused on Polina, as mentioned in the announcement. But after reading 2 chapters, I only see Ivan. Though, perhaps that's for the better, because it triggers intense brain activity in me trying to predict future events. And for some reason, it seems that this Mila is not as simple as she appears, though I could be wrong :)

lana-zulinska28.10.2025, 16:24I really liked the story! Probably, as a child, I couldn’t even dream of my friend’s brother, and this is a kind of fulfillment of a childhood dream)) I’m very glad that everything turned out for the best for the characters. I hope everything works out well for Gosha too.
