“Like my life was a stuffy room, and you’re the breeze that came in when the window opened.”
First of all, why have I never read the synopsis of a book? I asked my cousin to pick a book I should read next amongst all other books in my TBR pile and she picked this one. Covered it up in a plastic, grabbed tabs, highlighters and pens, and put it in my book bag so I could easily grab everything later on during my flight to Fukuoka, Japan. Little did I know that I was in for a ride (and not just because of the turbulence on that plane ride lol). Second of all, I brought so many swoon-worthy and romance related tabs when in fact, I should have brought loads of quotes and sad tabs! I barely passed a third of the book and I was already out of it. Vanessa really do be out there being wise and giving so many quotable lines ugh. Good thing Japan is full of tabs I could buy for emergencies! Third and last of all, I loved it so much. My first Abby Jimenez book and I was not disappointed. I had to download an ebook so I could read them throughout the train rides or anywhere else since I can’t just sit down and read-underline-highlight a book. I had to transfer all those from my phone to my physical copy. I just can’t not read it. I had to know what will happened between Vanessa and Adrian. So thank you, Abby. I’ll definitely be recommending this book to my friends.

A baby is used as a prop and the way in which topics like addiction, mental illness and disability are handled feels off to me.
