It took me quite a few chapters before I found the characters likable. It was a rough start, but I see the necessity of it. The voice of louise in the audio book was so gruff I found it hard to ever like louise. I think I'd have enjoyed the story better if I had read it.
The twists we're incredible.

Indie store book Rec that was right on the money for me. Tanner and Louise start off spiky and then you go on an adventure with them. 

Worth your time.

⭐️ 3.5/5

This is a beautiful story but I just have a different expectation of it. I thought it will be a lot more into the adventurous type of story. About them running away to Europe and kinda have fun.

But hey it is still an inspiring and beautiful story just not what im looking for. Louise and Tanner relationship are cute too and the ending my god lol
