oh my gOD!!! easily one of my favorite romance novels ever. i don't usually cry at these and this one had me blubbering multiple times. and not because it was some grand gesture book that swept me up -- because it was so real and reminded me of what love really is.

the mental health stuff was beautifully depicted. the romantic lead was goofy, which i always & forever prefer to the whole "emotionally unavailable but secret softy" vibe. i am such a sucker for any book that focuses on

how love takes a village and it's intertwining your lives and all the giggles and difficulties that come with it

. i wish i could read this again for the first time. i love love love love loved it
