I would describe this book as "fine", just fine.
As someone who typically enjoys Colleen Hoover's storytelling, this one felt predictable and lacked the emotion of her other stories. While I enjoyed the build up with Clara and Morgan, I felt like the climax hit and then just fizzled as we rushed towards the conclusion.
If you're a fan of Hoover's writing style, this still may be a book for you but I'll probably choose a few of her others over this one if I were to do a re-read.
One thing that would have changed my mind about this book? More Gramps! The true star of this story and we only saw him in small glimpses. A damn shame if you ask me!
