Book one broke my heart, this book glued it back together piece by piece. I'm not telling you this book wasn't sad and I did not cry because it was and I did. The book is about Poppy her sister, Sav and about her grief. She is meeting her Rune along the way and they are healing together. Finished it so fast and don't know what to do now..

After reading a thousand boy kisses and sobbing for hours, I didn’t feel like I could pick up the sequel and read it. I’m so glad I did.

This book was so heartbreaking but also beautiful. It’s all about how to pick yourself up after loss and learning how to cope with the challenges you face without letting them break you. Savannah and Cael’s love story was about how two lost and broken hearts come together and helped each other through their grief. It was so inspiring. Not only did they heal for each other but for themselves. This book will be forever stamped on my heart. Tillie did it once again. Broke me and put me back together.

This book was absolutely heartbreaking. Getting to see Savannah's perspective broke me and then adding in the trauma of Cael's story was heart wrenching. But I will say the premise was so fascinating to me and I did care for them so much, I just didn't let myself get quite as attached because I was worried about the potential trauma over load.

Man this was rough… Traumatic, and so full of grief but SO healing. I listened to the audiobook version of this which made it extra emotional. This book was such a beautiful piece of work. Tillie, you’re amazing❤️
