This is only 3 stars for me.
This book was really moving and emotional for me. My heart broke so many times along Mia's journey, but in the end she still survived, stronger than ever. Even with all of the emotional scars, I recognize she's gone a long way from where she began.
However, I found the changes to be a bit abrupt. Mia was a victim of domestic abuse, and then NO ONE realizes what's happening. She's shivering with hypothermia and no one does anything about it.
Anyways, it was kind of unrealistic; she gets hired without credentials, and does stuff that should take WAY longer. Also, Yaz was kind of like, way too yea-well-let-me-just-chill-and-im-totally-not-doing-anything-wrong-just-doing-yoga-at-work. Max was too similar to Nate for me... but overall it was emotional, so the 3 star rating.

Was alright. Nothing revolutionary. I didn’t think the main characters had a lot of chemistry.

Am I heartless for giving this lower than a 4? Probably. This story deals very heavily with the a main character in a domestic abuse situation. I thought this book was really well written, and wrote the sensitive topics in a delicate manner. However, I thought the story itself was kind of basic (I’m sorry, I sound so heartless rn
