I absolutely adored this book.
I loved the relationship development between Penny and Tate. I loved that nothing is off limits - grief, cheating, therapy, trauma (emotional and physical), loss of parent, dysfunctional families, mental health and illnesses are all discussed and made part of the storyline.
Told in dual perspectives, I liked getting to see Penny and Tate’s perspectives on everything that happened. I loved the plot and I liked that each time they almost kissed is centred around something that they both went through and supported each other with.
I highly recommend this book.

i read an e-arc of this back in September and forgot to add it here! this was my review on NetGalley :)
This book was absolutely incredible. Tess Sharpe does an amazing job of weaving these two girls stories together and giving us every reason to root for them ans care about them. I was nearly brought to tears multiple times (and I say that as a compliment). 6 TIMES WE ALMOST KISSED (AND ONE TIME WE DID) is a powerful story of grief and finding love - and yourself - in the wake of loss. It broke my heart and healed it at the same time. I can't express enough how much I loved it. It's already my favorite 2023 release.
