Kenna was a character I didn’t understand at first but then it all made sense.
Ledger was a book boyfriend I didn’t realise I needed. He is different to the other book boyfriends - he’s thoughtful, kind, but also has his darkness.
Scotty - no words.
What I liked:
- characters of Kenna and Ledger in particular
- the letters throughout the book
- the ending and introduction of Diem
- the jungle gym
- Lady Diana
- Ivy the cat
- lack of miscommunication trope which so could have been in there easily
What I disliked:
- not a whole lot!
- not a lot of Roman, I liked his character and wish we’d seen more
- calling the baby Scotty… felt this was a bit cliche but I understood why it was done
Graphic: Car accident, Death, Death of parent, Grief, Blood, Suicide attempt, and Vomit
