I didn't expect to like this as much as I did.

"Wherever you're going is waiting for you" is a phrase that will stay with me.

i really liked this. normally when i read litfic, i feel like it gets kinda slow in the middle, but i didn’t feel that way with this one. i was invested from start to finish. there were a few things that frustrated me (

ex. cheating, eleanor

), but that was probably intentional. cleo is very different from me, but i did feel like i related to her in a lot of ways and i had a soft spot for her even when she was being questionable. i thought the ending was decent. it mostly felt right, but a part of me felt like it was wrong and again, that was probably intentional.
