Abby Jimenez never misses. This book warmed my heart, then ripped it out and stomped all over it, then put it back in a thousand times over. If you have mommy issues, make sure you think long and hard about whether you’re ready to think about them because this book will really give you something to think about. Emma and Justin had a sweet, simple bond that I think spoke to the message of the book. Something uncomplicated between them in their extremely complicated lives. At any rate, this book is an emotional rollercoaster, but Jimenez treats it with beautiful, tender care.

This book really highlighted what trauma does to a person, and the damage it does to others. It was so beautifully, and in my opinion, realistically excecuted. Not only did Abby Jimenez show personal, and difficult problems the MCs had, but how they solved them together or individually. I appreciated everything in this book, and it made me laugh out loud too much!

Like her other works, it's heart-rending and makes you feel things in ways I never see coming. Highly recommend to anyone in a healthy enough place to read it, and have checked the TWs.

This was an incredibly rich rom-com, it’s a great love story, but it’s so much more. Grappling with the repercussions of childhood trauma, neglect, and guilt related to having a toxic parent. It’s about meeting someone where they’re at, loving and holding space for them. 
Also, Justin is the epitome of if he wanted to he would and I was here for it :)

“I would stay forever if you asked me,” I whispered.
“Then stay.”

SOMEONE SEDATE ME 😭😭 I AM UNWELL
this book genuinely changed my brain chemistry and I loved everything in it and the beautiful found family tropes and these wonderful characters with all their flaws and their growth 😭
I honest to god can't say a book has taught me something in forever EXCEPT FOR THIE ONE. so many life lessons about loving people and showing up when it matters and being the best version of yourself for them and most impontantly that maybe not all men with J names suck (Justin I will literally give up my left tit for you)
booktok you've done well this time
