This was so painfully slow, i could barely get through it. And i was listening to the audiobook which i usually never pause, this one however was a constant battle if it’s even worth finishing. I just found it really boring and contradicting to itself. That was especially evident at the end when Sam leaves the final voicemail and he says the complete opposite of what he’s been telling fmc this whole time. It’s painfully obvious that the author just wanted to give the final “emotional” blow but it just didn’t work. I was also bothered how everyone had something to say about the way fmc was grieving, like her boyfriend just died let her be.
