“Grief was just love with nowhere to go. It was the echo of a story unfinished."

"Love wasn't about being perfect or about fixing the cracks. It was about holding someone's hand while they healed, and letting them hold yours, too"

I would like to start off by saying that my dates read are not accurate as Spotify unfortunately has a limit on audiobook hours -_-

I read this for a book club pick so I went in pretty blind. Listening to this was decent; the narrator did a good job. I think the story was a bit dragged on at the 89% mark. I was surprised that there was more to be honest. I felt that the story could have ended there and everything after seemed like filler content to wrap up every single thing with a neat bow. It was a cute plot and concept, I actually had high hopes due to that but I wasn't in love with it. I thought the main character was sweet and the mmc was a really good developed character. I felt that the supporting characters were more entertaining than our main ones. This was another book that took the first third for me to really follow the story and enjoy it. It wasn't awful but I wasn't highly impressed with it, 3 out of 5 stars.
