4.0

I relate to this book more than I want to admit, and it makes me feel all kinds of feelings and emotions that I hate feeling, but they are important feelings. I have my own “Jace” just like everyone does I’m sure, and I think what is important to take away from this book, is that you do deserve to be loved, and you deserve to have the kind of life that you want for yourself.

I liked the book. I think the author portrayed a lot of difficult topics well. I wouldn’t be in a rush to re-read but it was okay

4.5

The reason it’s a 4.5⭐️ for me, is because I related to this book HEAVYYYYYY. I have been in a relationship and situation similar to this and the challenges blu is going through make me reflect to the time I went through it also. This book has made me remember the growth I went through and the challenges I had to overcome and just ughhhhh, this book has a special place in my heart 😭😭🫶🏼
