There were a few things that drove me crazy such as the miscommunication trope and I wish Kristen didn't string along her first boyfriend. I know she was trying to find her happiness with the cards she was dealt, but it doesn't mean you stop using your voice.

However I did love her friendship with Sloan and I loved Josh's friendship with Sloan's fiancee. The found family feeling of the firehouse in general.

The character arcs and growth did take a bit to get there but it when they did, I was proud of them. 

The author's note did raise my rating because I feel you deserve to know you are not alone in your diagnoses or journey.
