This book was really sad and honest. It depicted a couple going through a difficult time together and how individual, personal problems can stem from the bigger problems. It shows how easily love can seem to disappear in a relationship when there is no communication or partnership. This book definitely made me cry about 2-3 times. I also love the way it is written, switching from past to present; the duality really adds to the clarity and emotional heart-wrench that this book aims towards.

I loved the love story is this book, that being said there were elements I felt were problematic and totally unnecessary.

I have never read Colleen Hoover so I went into this book thinking the worst but I quite enjoyed reading it. The book follows a story of quinn whose marriage is falling apart while experiencing infertility. Every other chapter it changes from now to then when the characters first met and I really liked it as we could see the impact that infertility has had on them. Quite an emotional read as I was tearing up on the end and I would recommend even if you are a colleen hoover hater. Although it has some flaws as viewing abortions as selfish but I enjoyed that aspect of the book since it showed how much Quinn grieved and longed for a child.
