Reviewing this nearly 4 months after finishing it and I honestly could not tell you a whole lot about it other than how annoying the flip flop of the two main characters relationship was. It was a whole load of nothing with a tragic ending but because half the book was filler I wasn't even sad. The reason for the 2.5 is simply because the dialogue between the main two were interesting and would've been so much better if you erased every other character except the moms from the story.

Great story line to this book. I like the way that she talks about how people grow apart when they get older and things change with out reasons or because of society. I didn't like how many chapters were in this book I feel like it could have few chapters seeing a lot of them talked about the same thing.

So much One Day/Normal People vibes. Nice change of scenery with the fast pace in the story

If I could give this six stars, I would.

Legitimately, I’m at a loss for all these feelings.

I basically grew up with Autumn. I saw her perspective and feelings about Finn. I loved the character development. I grew as a person honestly.

THEN I RIPPED MY HEART OUT AND STOMPED ON IT
