Afterglow by Emily Antoinette

4.5

EEEEEEEEEE

It took me a little longer than expected to finish this one but I'm so happy I took my time. The writing, relationship and world building was fantastic, just as expected from Emily. What I wasn't expecting was so sob uncontrollably?????? Thank you?????

I have a soft spot for sapphic romances and when I saw our lovely Grace also suffered from chronic pain I knew I had to read it. I feel like its rare for main characters to have disabilities, more specifically "invisible" disabilities. I think it and Grace were written so well it left my heart aching. Grace's growth was really admirable. 

One thing I didn't care for was the third act break-up, it was unneeded in my opinion and the way they reconciled almost felt like it came from nowhere lol
