I might even say this was only a 2.5 star read for me. I had a hard time getting into this story because I could not connect well with Bennet. I completely understand her grief, anxiety, depression, etc. but I could not stand the way she treated Henry. I just felt bad for him throughout most of the novel—he is such a sweetheart and the saving grace of this review and book!

London Sperry’s debut novel is a relatable exploration of grief, depression, and the pursuit of passion, emphasizing that life doesn’t wait for the “right time.” Despite my dislike for the miscommunication trope, I appreciated how Bennett’s journey toward emotional openness ultimately strengthened her relationships.
Thanks to net galley for the ARC.

I was really liking this, but I found myself so annoyed with the main character at the wedding.

Overall, I really liked this but I almost DNF’ed because the FMC was so deeply unlikable at first.

I also absolutely hated the way she treated Henry, the way she handled the wedding weekend was just unnecessarily cruel, he should’ve made her grovel even more than she did. He was so sweet and didn’t deserve her bullshit. I know she had a lot going on but Jesus

. I did love the ending and I loved Henry
