this book has made me experience a wide range of emotions, changing from chapter to chapter. i went from not being able to stand emma to understanding her, to hating her, to liking her - everything. although i still don’t believe i would have gone through this situation the same way as her due to our differing beliefs, i can honestly understand her. 

jesse and sam, i loved them both so so so dearly, my heart broke for them both. the way their pain was written just tugged at my heartstrings again and again. 

jesse - it hurts knowing he spent all those years yearning for the love of his life only to come back and have her gone. this entire concept is so painful. 

sam - it’s not his fault that he was involved in all of this. he felt all this pain, felt like he was the ‘asshole’, for nothing. 

the characters were so well written and the story was very emotional and thought provoking, but it loses half a star just because the ending was somewhat too happy for me. too happy for the situation, too happy compared to what i would think reality would be. it wasn’t a BAD ending because it was happy, but it just felt unreal.

It was more like 4.75/5 ⭐️. I loved this book, it made me feel all the emotions. I was really surprised with the ending, but I was happy with it. It ended the way it should have. This is my favorite book TJR so far, she really did a wonderful job with this book.

c’était absolument incroyable et honnêtement ça me surprend pas tant que ça puisque j’ai adoré Daisy Jones & The six et The seven husbands of Evenlyn Hugo. Mais je m’attendais pas à 2 ans après autant aimer la manière d’écrire de TJR. La morale est vraiment jolie et j’ai bien aimé la manière dont les événements sont amenés. A partir du milieu du livre je savais que j’allais mettre 5/5. Bref j’ai pleuré mais ça valait le coup
