Jesus. Nowlin does it again. I legit cried the whole book. I can't even describe how horrible and amazing this book is. The book is divided into three parts between Finn, Jack, and Autumn. This gives us two additional insights we didn't have in the previous book and the story extends beyond the first book. It was a tad hard to follow in the beginning as I made the mistake of not reading the first book again but I don't feel like i'm missing all that much as it goes on. The chapters are shot enough that I dont feel like it drags but long enough that it feels like every chapter is detailed. I won't spoil it but good lord every bit of this book was so sad I was crying from page 25 till the end. Thank you so much to Laura Nowlin for finishing this series even when you said it was over!

This book is kinda hard to rate and review. Like I was very excited and had it preorder when I finished the first however it’s just different the first part is his perspective and then the middle is his best friends after the death and the the last part is autumn after the death. It was nice to see the story continue in some forums but it’s not a full story for anyone. I feel like a continue of story for each character for like more books would have been better. I also just felt the ending just like comes it almost felt unfinished like it was just over definitely no dramatic or even like ending I felt. This story definitely reflects on the grief and I found more depressing than the first one because of that but it made it feel more realistic so I did admire that.
