This book was too good! I read it in a day and a half and nearly cried during multiple parts. It was very frustrating in some parts. We know in order for the book to work, there needs to be a change in character but it feels like it’ll never come. Love!!

emotional

Not exactly 5 stars just because more people need to go to therapy in this book, and very unrealistic to change your plans for a man on the internet!!!! BUT I giggled, and I cried (hormones?) and as my first intro to this author I am hooked.

That was… quite a bit heavier than Jimenez’s other books. These are not fluffy romcoms; heed content warnings. Even the other two were pretty emotionally charged, but this one hit hard. I knew it was going to be set in the same world as Part of Your World and Yours Truly, but I guess I didn’t make the connection immediately. I thought that was a clever way to tie the stories together. The ending was slightly rushed, but still beautiful.

The parts that were fun were fun but things deflated the reading experience. Not the subject matter but how it was handled by the autor and in turn the character
