10/10.
both of the characters seem to be autistic, i love them both so much i Cry. willow is so relatable, my heart aches. garrison is sort of an emo boy. the writing style was so descriptive and conversations felt realistic so #netflix movie when?

i love love love love love gillow.

three stars seems too low but four stars seems too high??

Personally, I would have preferred the book if it was all set from when they were 17/ first meeting and then the second book focusing on their adult relationship and struggles with long distance. I think the back and forth of the past and present made it lack depth. I honestly couldn’t tell you the plot of this book. However, this universe will always be my favourite and I do love Garrison and Willow. They remind me of lily and lo which is never a bad thing. I am excited to see what happens in the second book!

i can't wrap my head around the fact that kbr can create such lovable characters (the core six + the abbeys) like this but the whole like us series is so bad

AAAH OMG I MISSED THEM SOOO MUCH!! I CANT BELIEVE I WAITED THIS LONG TO READ THESE BOOKSSSSS.

Okay now that’s outta the way: WHY THE HECK ARE GARRISON AND WILLOW SO SLEPT ON?!?!!! Like they are honestly the cutest couple (after lily and lo) in the kb universe. Ugh the amount of CONCERN for each other is so fricken sweet and pure and wholesome.

GARRISON MY PRECIOUS BABY. he’s such a gentleman and a little cushy banana for Willow
