Holy shit. Nea favorite book. I cried for last 25 pages. And that authors note??? It almost took me out. This book was amazing. So cute, but so much more than just a fluffy romance. Do yourself a favor and read it.

Was in het begin een beetje confused over hoe het appartement werkt, maar alles wordt gaander weg het verhaal duidelijk. Heel mooi, cute en heb weer lekker kunnen huilen, yay!

I don’t even know what to say right now—I think I bawled through the last 10 chapters. This book was so beautiful. It was a love story, not only between Clementine and Iwan across time, but between Clementine and her aunt. Although the book started a little slow for me, it ended up being a 5-star read because the writing, the characters, the tale, were all so engaging. And even though I caught on to context cues and was able to predict some of the storyline and character relations, it didn’t ruin the story for me. I know I will be thinking about this book for days and even weeks later. Loved it! P.S. There is some heavy mental health content (and that part was actually very healing for me), so read with care.

This romcom book is lovely and full of charm alongside some real emotion about family connections and how they guide the characters’ present day.
