Get the tissues ready when you read this one. The ending was so touching and beautifully vivid. It was like watching a movie. I did love the story, however there was a few flaws. (Minor spoiler ahead but not bad). Like Miles is very complicated and I still can't decide if he even deserves to be forgiven after being super toxic this entire book. And Colleen Hoover keeps writing female protagonists with zero self respect like as much as I loved the ending I kinda wish Tate let Miles go and moved on.

Some lovely moments in this book, but not my favourite one from Colleen Hoover - I did like the overall ending though and the parts with Cap were super sweet

It’s a colleen hoover books and those tend to be controversial. There is one line in the book that is questionable. It’s also got themes that may not be suitable for kids, so it’s definitely a 16+ book.

This book was absolutely amazing. It made me have all the emotions especially in the last about 100 pages. I was bawling my eyes out at the end so grab tissues. The cover of the book is so traumatizing now.
