I fell in love with this book and all of the characters. No joke, bawled my eyes out at the end. I did not expect this ending, but it was sooooo good!!

yeah let's read a Romeo and Juliet retelling hoping that it will end differently. Not gonna lie, I was hoping for that and I ended up crying because obviously we did not get a happy ending.

well, okay, I gotta chill if I want to write this review. Inhale... Exhale... Inhale... Exhale. okay I'm cool.

so you know there are some books that are not fast-paced but you still read it because it is so good? Yeah this is one of these books. Even if didn't make me binge read, I was thinking about it in between my reads. And I believe it tells a lot. Like you know the book which live with you.

I dunno what else to say really, it was engaging, it made you second guess, hoping for the impossible but still giving you hope. Also, giving you hope that one day you will find someone who will love you regardless of everything.

Yeah so it was my first R&J retelling and the bar is set so high right now, although I am not sure if I'll be reading any more of these retellings as my heart cannot take it.

oh and before I forget, thank you Netgalley for the eARC of this book. Highly appreciated.
