I gotta wonder, where was all the "hate" in this book? 

There were two things that really bothered me: him having a girlfriend but still giving leads to Amelia, and that surprise pregnancy twist. Ugh.

But you know what I actually liked? The whole mess of emotions, the confusion, and the fear that the characters were going through. It felt so damn real, and I gotta admit, it hit me right in the feels. I even shed a few tears because I related so freaking much to the main characters. Longing for someone for ages but not being able to have them in your life? It's like a punch to the gut, worse than anything else. So yeah, it was a good read, despite the annoyances.

I just wish the book was a tad longer and had more moments with Bea and Justin. Those scenes were absolute gold, and it sucks that it ended too quickly. Like, seriously, why'd it have to be over already? Ugh, frustrating.

P.S. Can we talk about that tour scene? Man, I bawled my eyes out. Been in that exact same place before, and letting go of someone you're so damn attached to is just excruciatingly painful. I was a mess for a whole week. But hey, at least her situation turned out better in the end. That brought some relief. <3
