I enjoyed the length of this short story, and really connected with Lucy and how she just wanted love. I had a similar thing with meeting a friend later in life and forging such a strong connection, but mine fizzled for different reasons than Lucy’s. I just kept waiting for Elle to let her down and well, just read it if you want to know what happens. I’ll completely forget this whole book later today though, so 2 stars for being short and not terrible

I really enjoyed this short story! It was fun and fast paced! It was actually really eye opening about a few things in the end which surprised me. I recommend!
