My thoughts
This book ruined me in the best way possible. Every time Hannah writes a book I think surely she can’t write anything better than this and then she does. This felt like free therapy. I’m not being dramatic when I say something in me healed alongside Lane and Matt.
Lane and Matt are both such fantastic characters and I could almost feel all their emotions coming off the pages. Lane is a little bit chaotic in the same way I am which made me feel so seen but also so loveable and fun. Matt is the sweetest baby angel and so selfless. Together they are a gorgeous duo and they have so much respect for each other and communicate in such a relatable and real way. I also had such a good laugh! I was constantly giggling to myself. It was a really special reading experience and Hannah really does have a little bit of my heart now.
P.s I almost forgot to say this is HOT. Like, so hot.
