It was good! I think it dragged on for way too long and it felt like a chore to finish it, but the storyline was nice! I really, really loved the ending, though I wish we could've seen more of a make-up story with Kenna, Grace, and Patrick. 

*edit*
now that I'm thinking abt it, i really am not a fan. idk it was bleh. whenever someone talks about it i cringe 

would most likely reread it, but not definitely ☑️

As expected, Colleen Hoover writes another masterpiece. I couldn't put this book down until I finished it, then I was sad that it was over. From the start of this novel, I was hooked – Kenna was a raw, lonely and genuine woman who made a mistake that ruined her life... until she didn't let it anymore; and Ledger is just the epitome of what every man should be. Both of them together (along with sweet little Diem) made this reading experience everything that I had hoped it would be: funny, emotional, tense, hopeful, sad and happy. Along with every other Colleen Hoover book, I highly recommend reading this!

This book is weird for me, while I was reading it I was really interested, wanted to know what would happen. I got so connected to Kenna, but I would not read this again. It was at the end of the day a really dense book to me, soo sad, although has a "happy ending", the process, so sad. I do think it hitted close to home for me and the last line will stick with me for a long time.
