Love the banter as usual, and how Abby Jimenez integrates heavy topics into her stories.
This book didn’t make me cry but it hit close to home. My grandmother lived with Alzheimers disease for almost a decade before she passed.

I also don't know how I feel about the ending.
I do think it's still a very important story - caretaking is a good thing to highlight. One of my all time favorite romances is The Heart Principle which has similar themes. But I think the combination of long distance relationship in this on top of everything else made it a tougher read for me.
The juxtaposition of her mother losing her memory against the MCs trying to build new memories together is bittersweet. That concept is so beautiful: the importance of memories, and how it's the little things that build a life. But I am left feeling rather melancholy...
