Better Left Unsent by Lia Louis
4.0

⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4/5

This book starts off with an immediately awkward and nerve-racking vibe when Millie finds out every single one of her draft e-mails were sent. They were never supposed to be seen by anyone and the truths in them could break her relationships.

My main thought throughout the book was poor Millie! I would want to crawl under a blanket and die if all of my e-mails saying what I really think got sent out. I applaud her for not quitting immediately, I totally would have tbh.

I liked that the romance in this actually seemed a bit secondary on her journey of finding herself after her ex essentially chewed her up and spat her out. Just and fyi in relation to the ex there are some recounts of emotional/verbal abuse, but not much detail on it.

I really adored the MMC as well. I love how him and Millie seemed like opposites for most the book, but really once she found herself again they were so much more similar than she thought! I also loved that her anxiety was portrayed quite accurately. I'm an anxious overthinker just like Millie so it was easy to relate throughout the book.

What to expect-
