I don’t know how to put into words how much I loved this book; I’m going to try but long story short, this was perfect, I’m obsessed, I have so many highlights and I will never stop talking about it.
Lane and Matt share a perfect NYE kiss but decide to stay friends instead; Lane introduces Matt to essential popular culture with movie nights and they bond over their love – with a little envy – of their friends love.
Lane suffers with a lot of guilt after the death of her father and her grief is palpable. She is bold, she is anxious and deals with agoraphobia, she cries easily and often and she is wildly relatable. All of this is written with such care but parts are raw and emotional and I soaked my sleeves numerous times.
Matt is the dream book boyfriend; he’s sweet and strong, HE LOVES TO READ, he loves his family and friends fiercely. I will never recover from this man.
Together they are beautiful, they compliment each other, the care they have for each other is very evident and the sexual chemistry is *chefs kiss* - there are a few more sex scenes in this than in Next of Kin and they are all perfect.
In summary, READ THIS BOOK.
