TW explanations: I tagged ‘domestic abuse’ as the mom hits Rose’s cheek in a brief scene (I wasn’t sure what else you’d tag that as). I also tagged ‘eating disorder’ as it’s mentioned that Daisy’s weight is being tracked by her mom including on her birthday (!!)

This book wasn’t bad. It’s 16 chapters so it’s pretty short and not a lot happened. But I loved seeing Lily get a therapist/the help she needs and can have someone to talk about it with. I know therapy has helped me a lot with my problems. Like another reviewer said, this book is somehow necessary and not necessary at the same time lol

It confirmed for me what I already knew: that the Calloway sisters’ mom is a terrible person and I really wish her daughters would go no contact but hey, I’m not the girls.

Also I skimmed/skipped the flashback scenes, I didn’t find them interesting🤷‍♀️

This novella focuses more on Lily's path to recovery from her addiction. As well as her new friendships and how she learns to trust the people around her with a part of herself she always felt ashamed of, and her relationship with Lo before the events of the first book.

I loved her friendship with Ryke, even if he was distrusting of her in the beginning, and how he's there for her when Lo couldn't. I loved Ryke, quite frankly. He's doing his best to be there for his brother while he's in rehab, and for his brother's girlfriend while she's in recovery.

Rose was one of my favorite characters. I loved how she was a key part of Lily's recovery, as her big sister, and how she did everything she could to help her. Same for Connor.

I truly enjoyed it, and it made me emotional at parts.
