emotional reflective

5.0

This isn't your typical romance novel and that's what makes it Anna's (and Quan's) story. Parts of this book were hard to read because they deal with end-of-life care. Other parts of this book I related to too hard. But I loved all of this book and most of it made me want to cry.

I found this book the easiest of the trilogy to fall into, and I honestly thought the Bride Test was amazing. I’m so glad I did read the authors end note first, and felt it gave me a deeper feeling for Anna and her emotions for how they connected like a memoir to Helen’s. 💕

Going into this I was so giddy for Quan to be the male lead, and Helen just ripped my heart out and twisted my brain to make me understand why I should love him more. Every part of Anna and Quan’s love story was real and rough, and I loved how both of them were so separate and working on themselves throughout the novel.
