3.5/5 stars
I really like the idea of this book when I picked it up, especially the lgbtq+ aspect, multiple povs, and a story of two twins where you know the beginning-of-the-end and the rebuilding and discovers what’s between. Unfortunately, the writing style of this book was difficult for me to adapt to and that caused me to be unable to immerse myself into the story. The writing style reminds me of how thoughts are fleeting inside a person’s mind, which sounded neat until I was somewhat disoriented throughout the book. I also found it more difficult and more scattered reading Jude’s pov, and much preferred Noah’s pov.
I do like this book, but with trouble grasping the writing I can’t give it more than 3.5 stars.

First off, holy long chapters! When I say long, I mean abnormally long. The book was definitely not one of my favorites. I pushed through because I heard great things, but it just didn't hold my attention.

Het boek heb ik zo snel uitgelezen, dat ik het jammer vond dat het voorbij was. Elke avond las ik minstens 100 pagina’s. Er was geen stoppen aan. Het was zo’n mooi en intens verhaal. Ik was onafgebroken benieuwd naar wat Jude en Noah uit elkaar had gedreven. Meer dan 1x heb ik gehuild.

Beautifully written book that takes your breath away and breaks your heart. But the ending felt too kumbaya to me. I know it's stupid to say but I wish there had been some loose ends, just like life.

Grief hits like a mf when it comes out of nowhere when so much life is happening at the same time and this book encapsulates it beautifully.
