A must read for parents. I was surprised at how blown away I was by this story.

I loved this in a way I didn’t imagine possible. It was so predictable but it just felt like a warm hug. I hated the best friend but every other character had some quality that I liked and it just was so pleasant to read.

Listened on Audiobook and just got bored and at some times I got confused about who each person was.

I'm putting this down twice because of the novella included in the 5 year anniversary special. This is my overall review. 

Jesus Christ I was an emotional wreck throughout this whole thing. The back and forth reminded me of Magnolia Parks but this was so much better. So much more exhausting waiting for the time to line up and the main characters to really form a relationship. The back and forth gave whiplash. 

Overall so good. Not what I would usually read, in fact has so many tropes that I hate but I was so enthralled with the story and devoured it and loved it.

This was the definition of right person, wrong time just over and over again. 

I took this out at the library literally the day it came out and then fell into the deepest slump of this year and stared at it everyday for hours trying to will myself to read it. I finally sat down because its due tomorrow and read it and omg I wish I read it sooner. This book was so good. 

I laughed, I cried so much, I metaphorically giggled and kicked my feet. The only reason this book didn't get a 5 star was that the ending felt so rushed and I was not a fan of how quickly the resolve was. I wanted pining. I did not get it. But still so good. 

Highly recommend.
