This book made me cry. I wasn't quite sure about the inherent infidelity of the premise that these three women get stood up by the same man, but I trusted Beth O'Leary, and I was right to. And of course with this author the tackles mental health in an upfront way as well. I don't know that I'll read it again, but I'm glad I picked it up. Everything did end up worth it in the end!

I enjoyed this loads, I got on board with all the characters and was along for the ride. It tackled some pretty heavy subjects, I thought with care, but remainded a fun read overall. Exactly what I needed.

The audiobook was really well done, and I was glad of the constant reminder of which point of view we were in.

The book felt chaotic and choppy between the three main women and Joseph. The mini flashbacks were unclear and made the book seem longer. Read the TWs before reading.
