I thought Avery’s relationship with Simone was sweet, and I wish we got to see more of them together. I did like Jade’s character as well and I felt like we didn’t really get much resolution with her part of the story. I’m not sure if that was intentional, or if certain things had to be left out but I did wish that Avery got to have a real talk with Jade at the end.
I guess I assumed from the description that it was going to be more of an active mystery and that Avery was going to actually investigate so that was partially on me. I was kind of disappointed with the ending, and how the plot and character development were resolved.
I always struggle with open-ended conclusions tbh 😂 I like knowing that things were neatly tied up and everyone got a happy ending, but part of me is okay that we didn’t get closure and answers for everything, because real life is messy and inconclusive. My feelings about the ending aside, I thought this book portrayed grief and the slow process of loss and illness in a very beautiful way.
