I'm About as Dramatic as Annie
As y'all well know (or at least can see rather clearly) I am in quite the reading slump. I have struggled reading all year and have not had many books I truly have loved. After a week of reading this though, strap in bitches because WE ARE BACK AND, FRIENDS, ARE WE BACK IN THE BEST OF WAYS. I am feral over this book and oh god I love it so fucking much.
The Characters
Chloe:Chloe, girlie, I don't know that I could relate more to a character when it comes to the general "fuck around and find out" attitude while also just maintaining the most deadpan sarcasm and I LOVE IT. And her notes and lists and organization skills? All over it. Have y'all seen my new digital planner yet? I have my whole week mapped out the best that I can to a T. And if you roll in changing shit on me, I WILL be skressed. S I get it, girlie, I really do.
Red: Redford. Oh my god. If my heart could belong to a man more... fuck if I know would happen. He honestly is the absolute best and I cannot wait for y'all to attempt to change my mind. The way he loves Chloe and gives her exactly what she needs while not making her seem incapable due to her fibromyalgia is so beautiful. And at the end, his whole thing about how he will survive without her, he just doesn't want to? Y'all if there was ANYTHING that I read that I need to take to heart, it was that shit.
Things I Loved
I honest to fuck loved the whole book. I don't have any complaints and will now and forevermore be shouting about this book from the fucking rooftops.
Things I Didn't Love
As I said, no issues. I literally cannot think of one. My whole heart belongs to this book.
The Final Verdict
I know I threaten y'all frequently about reading books, but this one? This one is for fucking real. If you do not go read this book right now we are no longer book besties and I will be promptly unfollowing you the second I find out. Now, go. Before I change my mind and make you listen to me recount the entire book, Southern mannerisms and all.
