This is a conflicting book showing the reality of relationships and how things don't always go how they "should."

I really liked the author’s writing style and the stylistic choices of this book.

I found the characters thoughts and actions pretty realistic, while the situations were, maybe, not as much. 

All the same, this was a nice quick read.

This book really has stuck with me. It plagues the reader with “what if I was still with my first love?” This book shows a honest wrestling that is uncomfortable at times, but relatable to many. It also reminds you of the power of tragedy and how it can deeply bond people together. It was not your typical romance, hallmark love story. But something about that was refreshing.
