There was not a single moment in Miles and Tate's relationship that was not absolutely smothered in red flags why is this so highly rated.
Also the sex scenes are just poorly written and repetitive, which is a pretty bad thing when the relationship in question is based purely on sex and it being super good.
TBH I could write an in-depth review of this but I don't really want to think about it anymore so I'm not going to.

I laughed, cried and smiled at this book. This is my first Colleen Hoover read but definitely won’t be my last! I love this book. It was so raw and genuine. Never felt so many emotions while reading this book. I loved it.

ok i HATED the first half. ironically started getting into the story halfway through (u know when u watch a bad tv show just bc it’s bad *cough* r*v*rdale). the end made me cry but i think i just got too invested in the characters. 

like a great idea, poor execution. 

also oh no stepbro.

I liked the switching between past and present, slowly unraveling Miles’ secret. However too much of the book was smut, which I personally don’t like in books, so I took a star off for that.
