melodiaeisthr's review against another edition

Finally and Lily and Atlas has their happy ending!! actually i already know they'd have a happy ending so i didn't expect much when i read the book. But what i didn't expect is that there are a lot of funny scene in it especially Theo and Atlas, i think it's just hilarious, there are times where i laughed on their part. I hate when Ryle involved in Lily's love life, like- they're not a thing anymore, why he should be jealous? he should've known his place.

3-3.5⭐️

i don’t think this book needed to be written and i don’t think it needed to be a whole new book. i would have been happy with a novella but i cant say i regret reading the book.

this book was average, it was real. seeing atlas and lily healing was amazing to see but i don’t think we needed it since it ends with us wasn’t about them, but i can see the high demand.

i think i liked this book because i like to see people happy. but i loved the minor characters more!!

if this book was never released i would be okay but i do think that it was a fast book to get through and i wouldn’t tell someone not to read it if they wanted to!!

Omg😭😭
It was so good!! I didn’t want it to end💔

I’m so so happy that Atlas and Lily got their happy ending!! They are perfect together! 
If I wasn’t in love with Atlas Corrigan after reading It ends with us, I definitely am now!! How he treats Lily is so so heartwarming and I can’t get enough of him together with Emerson🥹🥹 

My favorite character is Theo for sure! He’s so funny with his little comments and I love when he’s mocking Atlas because of his cheesy words to Lily! I love the relationship he and Atlas has! And I love Josh too!!  

I don’t know if I like this one or IEWU more, probably this one because it’s not as sad and hurtful but at the same time sad and hurtful books is good in their own way. And I’m also not sure of my rating, it’s definitely a four but I need to process it to be able to give it my final rating🫶🫶
