Oh my heart. It is both shattered and swelling at the the same time. This is exactly my type of book. It’s a beautifully written story of life, real and raw, relatable and emotional. I went into this blind with only the expectation of there being a bit of a sad storyline. It’s there, oh boy is it there. And while it’s a central part to the book there is so much more as well. There is friendship, motherhood, identity, and finding yourself. And of course there is a love story, and a beautifully painful one at that. Kate and Cam have the type of love you long for and once you find you hold on tight and appreciate every single moment. Grief is a central point to this story and while I haven’t experienced what the fmc does (and hope I never have to) Grey wrote it so well that it felt personal to me and made me feel all the emotions. There is apart of this story that I really identified with, and as painful as it was to read, it also helped me to handle my own pain and grief. The ending was so beautiful. I want to say exactly why but I don’t want to take that journey away from those that haven’t read it so I’ll just say that I really appreciate what Grey did. Okay, I’m gonna cry just thinking about this book again so I’ll wrap it up here but if you enjoy emotional love stories or relatable life stories, this one may be for you!
