This was my first CoHo book and I need to say that I love it very much and it made me grow a heart bone most definitely! The only thing that made it lost .25 stars was that I felt that the ending was rushed and a little forced (a happy and really cute one at that) but it was a beautiful book with lot of things that made me reflect for the rest of the day.
Definitely recommend!!

A great book and definitely worth the read. My only criticism would be that the characters didn’t seem to have spent that much time together alone. But overall I really liked it!
