So please if any of these elements will trigger you I highly recommend you don't pick up this book until you are in the right frame of mind to read it.
I would give this book all the stars in the universe. Yep I said it this is my favourite book of ALL time. Never have I seen a book written so well in my life.
Now I don't know if I related to Evelyn so much because I am a bisexual woman but I am only in love with one woman? But it was so nice (and a much needed change) to see a character that is created that identifies as bisexual but the author doesn't use stereotypes. So thank you Taylor on that front.
This book had me hooked from the very first page, and I really loved the narration style. It was so different and unique yet it worked perfectly well.
I did initially start this book a month ago on audiobook but since I borrowed it from my library I had to return it, so then I forgot about it. But then when I saw the book in my local bookstore I knew I had to buy it. And honestly I do not regret a thing.
As I have listened to some of the audiobook and read the entire physical book I have to say I would recommend the physical book over the audiobook, in saying that the audiobook is amazing but I think this story works better if you are reading it how it was intended. As a book.
Anyways that is all I am going to say. But one last thing, that plot twist at the end had me shocked, heart broken but satisfied. So as I have been saying, if you can get your hands on a copy of this book please read it.
