Love and Other words showcased one of the best love stories I have ever read. Elliot and Macey will latch onto your heartstrings like no character before! Any fans of Emily Henry will adore this novel! 

This novel involves SA, which I think was handled poorly. The authors referred to it constantly as “cheating” and a “betrayal,” making it seem like Elliott’s fault, instead of recognizing the trauma he went through
