Things We Left Behind by Lucy Score
5.0
5/5 stars (spoiler-free review)
I started reading this series because one of my students was reading the first book in this series. I was curious as to why a seventh grader was reading a contemporary adult novel. Although I am a little concerned about what my students are reading, I was introduced to a lovely and heartwarming series. This review is an overall for the series, as well as TWLB.
One of my favourite things in this series was the self-awareness. The references to the book titles within the prose and some other witty jokes really made me feel like I was in on an inside joke. Something about the character's drew me in, and I finished this book series in only a few days.
Things We Left Behind is my favourite book in the Knockemout trilogy. It had me on the edge of my seat and I didn't want to put the book down. I loved Lucian and Sloane's dynamic, and I especially loved how they had a history that the other two books lacked. I felt like Sloane and Lucian knowing each other since they were young filled the 'childhood friends to enemies to lovers' hole I didn't know I was missing.
I really felt for Lucian and Sloane, even though some of the cliche's in this book. It was something digestible and made me feel a little empty upon finishing the bonus epilogue. I am happy everyone had a good ending and everyone was happy.
