Wow wow wow. This one is going to take a while for me to recover from. Somehow this book left me feeling so whole even right after it ripped my heart into a million pieces. Enzo, Denny, Zoë, and Eve are some of the most lovable characters I’ve ever gotten to know.

TW 

I was not prepared for the sexual assault half way through the book and decided I could not finish

Also, the characterisation of the women characters in this book is bad. No one would behave the way Garth Stein writes Eve and it was beyond frustrating.
