The characters were all very likeable and I thought the plot twist was very clever. I had no idea the story was going in this direction but I loved it. Some very sad moments that left me reaching for the tissues by the end. Overall a light-hearted rom-com with a clever twist.

There’s a lot of underlying themes about grief and mental health that was unexpected but handled with care.
The mystery of Joseph Carter kept me intrigued. At times though I was getting a little frustrated on how there were more questions than answers as the story got going that was I was beginning to lose interest a few times. I’m really glad I stuck with it, especially as I got to buddy read it with a friend, which I found helpful to keep going (it was fun coming up with theories as to what was happening, with my theory being it was a whole “Time Traveler’s Wife” situation). The more the story progressed though and pieces started to come together, the results broke my heart.
This is really a book you have to go into blind because just giving the smallest detail or reaction is a spoiler on its own. I will say though, read it and read it to the end. It all comes to together quite beautifully.
