Such a slow start just for it to end so tragically. I wish I read this as a teenager instead of a young adult. I feel like it would’ve hit me harder.

Not for me. Don't think any of the characters were complex enough to be real people and/or were good examples of young love and life. Thoroughly did not enjoy the choices the author made.

A slow burn romance that most readers will be able to relate to; loving someone but missing your opportunity to be with them. The book centres on Autumn and Finn through their schooling years, which gives a YA genre feel, but without the writing style to match. The book will have you laughing, longing and crying. It’s worth the read if you enjoy a romance.
*Spoiler*
I do feel the ending was rushed and had we of had more time getting to know Autumn and Finn within a romantic relationship together the ending would have held greater emotional pull.

I don't get the hype of this book. It was easy to read and I wanted to continue reading it, but at some point it was more of wanting to get the book done rather than wanting to know what happened next. After the halfway there was some boring parts. The language was mediocre, and once one character's eye color suddenly changed. The writing was also confusing and I actually had to google how exactly one part of the book went because I couldn't comprehend from the text itself.
At first I thought that the narrator Autumn was okay, but the further I got in the book, the more I started to dislike her. Honestly none of the characters really spoke to me. I also didn't like how Autumn dated another guy for four years even though she was clearly loving someone else more than her boyfriend the whole time. I think this book gives some false information about what relationships are like and what to expect about them.
Even though the ending was hinted at the beginning, it still came as a shock to me because I had already forgot about the first few pages. I admit that I cried a bit in the end, so points for that I guess. Still, the ending left a bad taste in my mouth, and I don't like how things were handled.
I probably won't read the sequel that tells the story from Finn's point of view. Though I am a bit curious to know if it is any better.

would i recommend this? HELL NO 😭😭😭 i know im in the minority and this book can be suchhhh a hit or miss, but fromy my standpoint, this book was almost insufferable
so disappointing i cannot emphasize this enough 😭 and a second book for what??? oh, right. JS FOR MONEY CS I HEARD THAT WAS EVEN MORE DISAPPOINTING 💀 like is that even possible??
ok anyway for the actual review:
incredibly incredibly slow from the second chapter alllllll the way till like 4 chapters before the end maybe
definitely more of a coming of age than romance; romance only picks up at the very end but its hinted throughout, + finny might as well not even be the main love interest cs jaime??? his name is on like every page from start to end
ending was incredibly rushed and i cant even feel sad for her cs girl what rhe hell
LIKE WHAT RHE HELL DID I JUST READ ONG
like yes i knew this was coming but WHAT. WHAT as in a plot twist way but the plot twist was js for shock factor and it was js slapped in there like bro 💀 worst plot “twist” ever—if you would even consider this to have a plot cs its js that bad
im being merciful with my .5
i mean hell even with my ONE .5
