I absolutely loveddd this and really enjoyed it overall but some of the stuff in the third act/last 10-20% of the book bothered me and reduced it a bit
I can’t put my finger on exactly what it was that bothered me but I think it was a combination of too many things going on at the end that weren’t really fully wrapped up, her ending up pregnant which was just unnecessary and also a bit frustrating since it clearly at least temporarily ends her pro skating career and also contradicts them talking about adoption, and just generally the whole thing with Aaron was so long and at some point it just became too much and started annoying me a bit - I also generally agree with the reviews talking abt how it’s too long cause I think a lot of these issues could’ve been solved by making it a bit shorter.
