Finally found a damn romance I actually liked holy shit. Okay so this was an EXTREMELY quick read for me. Like, an evening, a simple singular evening type of read. I read it spouts while I was cleaning some of my mother's house (and over an exceedingly long call with my grandma, love the woman).
I'm usually a modern romance hater, the books are usually just shit I'm not going to lie to you (and I really hate the inaccurate way that both women and men are usually described in them), but I found myself liking this one. It isn't immediately jumping to my favorites but reading it was nice. It was a book I kind of wished was actually longer. When, for most books, I find myself turning to see how many pages are left.
The plot with the dad set me off a little bit (cheating is... extremely taboo for me FUCK that shit), but it is important to remember that every single person is capable of being forgiven. (and that just because I would never let that slide against me there are more people more empathetic than me) I got a little miffed by the speech Shirley's mom gave for the wedding but... it had me thinking. There are so many people in the world who are good people but they have made a horrible or embarrassing life decision in their life, but as long as we move on to be better people than those decisions can be looked past. (That's not saying we should forget them however.)
I just liked it I guess, didn't love it but I liked it.
