Fans of Emily Henry will enjoy this book. It swings a little heavier on the contemporary fiction than the romance and tactfully manages themes around grief, cancer, and guilt/anxiety. While I liked Alison and Adam at times it felt like they were two individuals on these journeys who fell in love without always really feeling that unity or connection. I wanted more of that on the page. Tbh I would have rather read a Chelsea x Patrick story because their friendship and connection was begging for its own story. Despite that I did enjoy reading this book.
