Until Next Weekend by Rachel Marks

4.0

“I always thought that being heartbroken was just an expression, a state of being, but it’s not. It’s a physical thing, a real pain, like something in your chest is actually cracking.”

Reading this book, it kinda hits home to me. My family too had our issues and it deeply impacted me when I was a kid but not so anymore now and in a way, I feel like both of my parents, my dad especially, could relate to Noah’s character or the situation that Noah and Kate are going through in this book.

It’s lovely how Noah’s relationship with Mimi developed from simply supportive friendship into something more, though I wish they had more time together towards the end, I’m happy with their progress. We all need a Mimi in our lives really. She’s a really nice character truly.

We also get to see Noah’s character development very well in this book. I love the way the author wrote his character very realistically in this book. His thoughts and his feelings are very relatable. In a way, you could also sort of feel his pain having to be apart from his kids at times, including his ex-wife too.

As Nana said while we’re reading this book together, it is a story of how sometimes your soulmate, your one true love, is not the person you’ve been chasing, but the person that has always been in front of you. And that truly, perfectly, describes the story so well, no other words needed.

If you need something light, romantic, yet hits your emotion and feels, this is it. It was such a great read between my hectic schedule right now
