Another excellent winner by Jimenez! Great romance and an excellent, very realistic depiction of a person (not main the characters) with mental illness. I will be a Jimenez reader for life.

I really don’t know how I feel about this book. I really like the idea of it and the basic plot outline is really interesting, but the way it is written annoys me. I just don’t like the way everything plays out and most of it was honestly pretty boring. Maybe that’s the point though? That they’re just boring people and boring people can have nice love stories too, but boring people living boring lives makes for a boring book.

Anyway, that is me being hateful. It is actually a sweet story and I really did enjoy the heavier issues, I thought they were fairly well written.

I may also just be a hater of contemporary romance, because I hate reading and seeing things like “AITA” and “unalive” and “snap”. It just ruins it for me.

Also they were way too in love way too fast. Justin was lowkey insane for all of that. And despite the fact that he contains the qualities that could make him a great book bf, I kind of hated him. I felt like he was pretty selfish towards Emma the whole book. He kept saying “meet me where I am” all because he wanted a girl he knew for a few weeks to give up her entire life to raise his siblings with him in Minnesota? And the way he spoke about her getting help in his last chapter really felt like he hated her. Like she had gone through such hell and he spent six months moping about how she should’ve stayed with him?? No, actually she shouldn’t have, she couldn’t have healed her trauma and PTSD while maintaining  a healthy relationship for the first time and raising three children. He just really angered me.

Pretty negative review, but it actually isn’t a bad book.
