Written so well, but the heavy topics that are listed were just so much I did not enjoy reading it. The ending was happy (?) but only the final 2 pages…

a solid 4 🌟 - I enjoyed it but it wasn’t perfect. I wish that emilie and sarah’s pasts were more fleshed out
(specifically with the drug plotline in sarah’s past — unless I missed something, it wasn’t mentioned until the end? it felt off)
and I wish that it was longer. I would’ve loved to read more about their relationship.

I loved that how even though they went through semi-similar situations in their past and are still working through it (also wish this was more of a focus), the plant is what really brought them together. I just love that. 

nina lacour writes very beautifully and julia whelan really made her words come to life! this is the first audiobook i’ve ever finished and I would say it’s mostly due to whelan
