I loved Eva, Shane and their relationship in the past and the present. They were such robust and interesting characters that I felt like I really was getting to know real people. The story itself is so emotional, and you just really root for them both throughout the whole book. This also has its funny moments, like I audibly laughed several times which made it even more enjoyable.

Loved this beyond, beyond. Every word miraculous and just what it needs to be. Such gorgeously drawn characters, from the smallest side folks to the incredible MCs, each with powerful and deeply human challenges, layers, and growth. I adored the audio and can’t wait to have my hands on a physical copy - I will read it again. I loved it more than I have loved anything in a long time and it will stay with me forever.
