It flowed really fast, and admittedly I was caught off guard by the ending. In hindsight, a lot of the things mentioned in the book make a lot more sense once you know how it ends.
I also don’t know why they put that last chapter in, and I was hoping Ginny and Monica would get together tbh-

so usually I can’t stand these types of books because it seems like they are all the same and so generic and bland. well, this was completely different.

i loved the main character, surprisingly. she was super realistic and just a genuine person and I enjoyed reading about her. I also liked reading those flashbacks with Jen.

this book really made me emotional, it’s very sad and it made me think a lot about life. Monica’s and everyone else’s struggles were so real and this whole story was so down-to-earth.

one of the best things is that there is no love interest. I think the highlight of the book is the relationship between the friends, more than romantic, which I thought was such a good and refreshing move.
highly recommend.

An interesting read, I liked Monica well enough and enjoyed being told the story from the present time and the past.
