Forgive me; reading it felt like an expensive Wattpad story. There's not much of a new conflict that I anticipated, but it could potentially serve as a pleasant closure to the story of Lily and Atlas. Almost dnf'ed halfway since it was too obvious to me that it was published just to please IEWU fans begging for the continuation of its epilogue. Thanks to the green flags waved by Atlas Corrigan, it became forgivable along the way 'til the end. I adored the book's intention of focusing more on Atlas than on Lily, nevertheless their restart on love and life. Thank you, Atlas, for reminding me once again the definition of a real man.

I like it but I love It Ends with Us more. this book is not boring as people always said but it’s not that entertaining either. it’s serving us with more of Lily and Atlas story. I feel like that’s the only purpose this book is here for. and again, I like it. can’t wait to see Blake as Lily in the movie soon :D

once again CoHo doesn't disappoint us

4.5

my heart is satisfied i didn’t love how she ended it but i’ll just get over it i guess

This was the nice, long happy ending to It Ends With Us that I really needed.
fast-paced

Second time read. Too tame. Young adult. Rated PG. If that.
