As I’ve read more CoHo books I’ve realized they’re basically trauma porn and sometimes it’s too much for my little heart 😫 Don’t get me wrong, I was wrapped up in the story and I get why so many people love CoHo. But jeeeez the layering of traumatic events 😮‍💨unnecessary shock value… Anywayyy 😅 something I would’ve liked to see was more individual time in-between the meet ups to see more character growth. However, I really liked the book within a book concept, the significance of the date, and the idea behind this book overall. P.S. check trigger warnings before reading!
