HOLY-
I absolutely devoured this book. It is currently 2:00 AM and I just finished it and I def cried. It is such a sweet, rewording book. I would HIGHLY recommend to anyone who wants to read romance but with a bit more thought provoking questions other than the typical things like miscommunication.

Highly recommend reading the bonus epilogues, super cute

It was a great book and I LOVED the ending, but it kind of a drags at certain points where you just have to push through. Overall a great book though and they touch on some heavy topics

beach read perfectly captured the realistic balance between good and bad, it gave me a new appreciation for our tragically beautiful world we live in, it took heartbreak and pain and made it into something loving and kind, it simply became a new favorite for me

It does get very heavy at times with January dealing the grief of her dad’s death and complicated emotions along with it, as well as Gus’s abusive dad. But I loved their connection and slower build. 

But still, I hate a miscommunication/lack of communication, so that annoyed me a bit at the end.
