I love it. It is a comforting book to read. To be honest, at first, I was a bit confused and I had the urge to dropped it since it gave me a roller-coaster of emotions. But, as I read through it again, I find it inspiring, and reflective. I learned a lot. I connect well with the characters, and made me really think about my own life. I relate to some of it, and it made me inspired and happy that I learned something, and reflect on my own ups and downs in life. This book is so beautifully written.

While technically my second five star romance read of the year, it feels like the first! I adored this book. I rarely ever want to re-read a book, but I know I will want to revisit their story over and over. The dialogue is realistic, and it feels true to life because it’s…life. Things go wrong, not everything is cute, people falter and fail. But it is still astoundingly romantic, human and easily one of my favorite books of the year. love love love.
