I REALLY enjoyed this book, but I do wish the author had made the decision more difficult and less obvious.

“Think of all the people in the world," he said, tucking my longest hair behind my ear. "And I was lucky enough to find you twice."

i cried, obviously. i have yet to read a taylor jenkins reid book that hasn't made me cry. this book was so beautifully-written, and even though it did stress me out majority of the time, i still loved it. plus, it was set in massachusetts, where i spent the first half of my life and now attend college, so that made me love it even more. only 2 books left and then i'll have read tjr's entire catalogue. 2020 has been my worst year personally/mentally, but probably one of my best reading years ever, because i have discovered my favorite author!!

I'm so conflicted. Objectively this is beautifully put together story that's well written but it's also beautifully and frustrating tragic.

I'm a reader that likes to feel content and satisfied with the end or resolve of a book and I knew very early on in this story I'd be conflicted and likely unhappy with whatever decision was made and how the story ended.

I resonated with each of the 3 main characters feelings, actions and hopes but there wasn't going to be a way they all got what they wanted.

I found myself imagining what the story would be like from Jesse's POV. My heart ached and shattered for him.

If you get overly emotionally involved in characters I'd say read with caution and be prepared for the heart ache.
