- Went into this knowing I probably wasn't going to like it tbh—and I was RIGHT.
- I feel like these themes could've been so interesting to explore if the execution was better:
- Really didn't like the writing: used too much telling, very repetitive and the centre-aligned poetry-esque chapters made me want to laugh instead of being sad and it just took me out of the story.
- Some attempt at writing techniques were present (eg. revisiting previous imagery of the sunrise in the plane) and, again, the ideas were interesting in a way.
- Character development and story went nowhere tbh.
- I can't really tell if the relationships depicted were a genuine attempt at "edgy romance" that was meant to be like... sexy, or if it was trying to be an exploration of characters lit-fic style. For either option the execution wasn't great. Choosing your genre and your target audience and sticking to it is the fundamentals of a good novel!

It’s a tiny bit cheesy / cringy in a couple spots. But it made me feel. I smiled, actually laughed, and cried so hard. At first I was like “typical man getting his heart broke once in his teens and then hating relationships forever” but… I get it. I don’t, but I can understand and empathize. I loved this book.
