This book will make you cry

The dynamic between Will and Lou is this book's greatest aspect. The way this book captivates their differences and similarities is just chef's kiss, also the character developments!!!

This book literally was comforting but also had me bawling on and off for hours. Highly recommend. It is sweet, then bittersweet, and overall beautiful because of both of those elements.
