Its impossible to explain what I liked and didn’t like about this book without major plot spoilers, so I’ll just say this: if you’re looking for a run of the mill rom-com / queer love story this is NOT it. If you’re open to some slight supernatural flair and suspension of disbelief, you may really enjoy this. I’d liken this most closely to “Just Like Heaven” with Reese Witherspoon, not the same storyline at all but you have to be willing to be okay with some bending of reality.

I never read the synopsis of a book or any detailed reviews before picking it up, so maybe people often pick this up knowing full well what they’re getting into. I was not one of those people. About 25% into the book some big things change the trajectory of the story and I had to put it down for a few days and readjust my expectations before returning. I’m so glad I did. What a sweet, unique story with a lot of really positive, but not glorifying, representation. I can honestly say I’ve never read anything like it before and that, in itself, earns some major points.

I never thought I would love this story, it being a girl x girl which is not quit comfortable for me. But how the story played out, the end, I loved everything. There wasn't a time I really felt uncomfortable.
When I bought the book, I had some idea's about what it will be about, and let me tell you, since I didn't read the blurb, I was completely wrong in all of it. But it surprised me also in good ways. It's one that was worth the money and time and one I will think about every time I take the train.

Fuck yes I loved this book. In the beginning it was difficult to rly get into the story or smt but it just got better and better. Just when I thought I finally figured it out, that was very much not the case. The ending was super cute. The plot was 10/10 incredible and so fucking thought-through (idk if that’s a word lmao).

I love the characters and the romance but I found the chapters were long, I prefer to read shorter chapters and at times it was a bit of a hard slog through, I do love this book and hold it in good memory but it was it difficult to read at times.
