Rating: 3/5
Emotional Investment: Cried more than I would like to admit
Book Hangover: Will take me a while to get over the ending


I usually really enjoy TJR books, unfortunately, I can’t really say the same about this one.

I am just not a big fan of Emma - She is incredibly immature and selfish.
Of course you are a different person after 4 years; of course Jesse is a different person after what he has been through,

Spoiler

but to decide you are not meant to be after only 3 days is unrealistic.

I hated the ending,

Spoiler

I simply don’t understand how you can trade 10 years and a marriage for 1

, but maybe that’s just me.


Lastly, what’s with all the grey area cheating?

*4,5*
I found the book a bit boring at times, but that might just be because I get quickly disinterested. The book was written very well because I had no idea how it was going to end. I really liked that the person who Emma didn’t choose in the end still got their true love the book had so many deep messages and quotes it was extremely artistic and beautiful.
