I went into this book expecting a rom com. It's not but that's okay. It's more about falling in love with yourself and its deeply emotional in all the best ways. I'm reeling from it and inspired by the sweet message.

Only one thing kept me from loving it more. It has a jarring pregnancy loss and I've had 3 of those. That took me off guard and brought up emotions in not the best way. But if I'd known it was there I may not have read the book and I did enjoy it, so I suppose it worked out alright in the end.
