1st I can’t do two white boy names I get so confused. Second I hate the way the story was told I don’t know what it was but no. chapter 39 made this a three star and not a 2 star. Idk how to feel.

i loved this book omg!! i had high expectations going into this book because of all the hype on tik tok and it definitely lived up to it. i picked a guy that i liked almost right at the beginning and he just got better and better. the entire time i was reading this i was wondering how she was going to end this in a way that would be happy and omg did she do it because the ending was absolutely perfect and better than i could’ve expected. i definitely recommended this and the quotes in here about love are amazing!

I wasn’t expecting to draw me in as quickly as it did, I loved the story, the characters and the way it made me feel. Fantastic! Will be recommending to anyone that loves a complicated romance

This was a good read !! I was avoiding this book because the plot is stress inducing. But, I liked it because of how it explored “true love” and our expectations around it. Sometimes, there are parameters and that’s okay. It was pretty predictable like I knew from the jump who she would pick and I’m glad she chose them. I would’ve given this book 5/5 stars if I felt a bigger shift on my values/morals or if I was knocked off my feet with a plot twist.

This book is sooo hard for me to rate. I originally wanted to give it 3 stars because all the characters infuriate me but the more I think about it I realise it’s because of the crazy situation they’re in. Like duh obviously they’re going to be unreasonable, Jesse basically just rose from the dead
