I'm not one to ever guess "plot twists" and I definitely didn't foresee any of this plot. I loved that most of the novel was told through Moths POV and only switched to Sani at the end. The characters were relatable and it really provoked many emotions (again, the audiobook was just fantastic. I listened to it while paining and had to take quite a few breaks to wipe away some tears).

This novel in a span of 3 hours had so much heartache, passion, first love, tragedy, emotion and everything in-between. But that plot twist at the end completely shook my world and felt bittersweet. Moth is such a loving character whom I wanted to encase in a protective bubble. I adore both her and Sani's relationship.
