Solid one off romance rom-com vibes. Deducting a point for Helen’s being irritatingly entrenched in denial for 95% of the book / Grant being so maddeningly in love with a woman for no apparent reason who does absolutely nothing but push him away. Still solid if you can push through mild annoyance, I understand that it’s the for the ~tension~

This is genuinely some of the most beautiful prose I’ve written this year. It’s hard to write characters that feel so real while also broaching such difficult topics like grief and familial issues and Yulin Kuang handles it all so delicately. My heart hurts in the best way after finishing this. I wrote down so many quotes from Grant throughout because he just loves Helen so well and meets her where she’s at and ugh!!! Something to emulate in my own life I guess

when he wrote his address on her internet thigh I had to go take a walk holy cow
