Book: A Thousand Boy Kisses

Author: Tillie Cole

Star Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Trigger Warnings: Cancer, Death, Terminal Illness, Grief, Child Death

A Thousand Boy Kisses has stole my heart and crumpled it up into millions and millions of tiny pieces. It had me crying within fifteen minutes of picking it up and I didn’t stop sobbing for an hour after I finished! I don’t think a book has ever ever done to me what this book did! It was the most beautifully written book I have ever read and I think I can proudly say it’s my favourite romance of all time! I read it as a kindle read and through sobs once I was finished I purchased it as a physical as I will certainly be going back to reread this book! I never annotate or highlight while I read but I highlighted so so much of this book on my kindle!! Thank you so much to @mollysmustreads for telling me to read it and being there to support me while I bawled my way through!!

I don’t want to say anything about the story itself as I went into it blind and I think I appreciated it so much more!! A stunning, emotional, heartbreaking, must read!!

When I read the prolog I thought I was in for a cute book. Instead i found the main couple toxic
The hole middle point was redundant.

I did really like the last two chapters though Rune had a brief pit of development and with the a thousand girl kiss jar I thought that I might like the ending. The epilogue ruined that for me. Having him die at 27 and reunite with poppy without growing outside their relation ship was not an ending I particularly enjoyed.

other than that I just didn't enjoy the writing style which is totally personal preference but the amount of time all the character said baby was just ridiculous. I see why some people might enjoy this book but I just didn't gell with the writing or the characters.
