3.5 stars. It was a cute read. Black romance is rarely seen in mainstream media (movies, books). It was nice to read stories about young black love.

What a beautiful read! These black characters have their own beautiful love stories. Each is unique, yet tied together through the blackout in NYC. After finishing a chapter, I found myself wanting more of that story. I appreciate that it weaves the stories throughout the book, rather than placing them in succession. This novel is beautifully written by some of my favorite authors!

Why o why did Tiffany D Jackson get to write such a huge part of this novel. Why. That’s all I’m asking. I loved everything else about the book and I even found some authors I’ve never heard about that I need to check out. I couldn’t get enough of Nic Stones writing style and character building. It was absolutely magnificent. But instead of spending more time with her characters we need to go through chapter after chapter of whine baby Tammie and her ‘I love him, but I shouldn’t love him, but I love him’. I also really adored the last chapter written by Nicola Yoon. Those two authors I would love to read more from, and I can safely say that I will never voluntarily read Tiffany D Jackson ever again... this would’ve been a 5 star if it wasn’t for Jackson. Just saying. I’m that bitter about it.

The idea 💡 of these stories is incredible, but the execution was incorrect.
I can't believe it took me 5 months to finish a book with only 243 pages. Each story had a good start but little by little they became boring and with predictable endings. It was a good idea but very badly executed, to be honest.
