Omg I picked this book up from the library today because it was slow at work and omggggg I couldn’t put it down. Maybe I just love the troupes involved but like it’s perfect 🤩 I love that it’s like about empathy at the end. It reminds me of the good place. it’s like she finds out the there is no answer to her fears about being a single mom and raising a child alone but at the same time Shep is the answer! He teaches her to think about others deadass because he’s so selfless (literally to his own detriment 😖) I usually hate slow burns but omg slowly understanding him from her perspective 🥵 I started it thinking like oh is it going to be like he loved her the whole time 🙄 and then I was like ohhh no duh like yeah from her perspective that was her childhood friend she likes having around. But like then it becomes so fucking obvious he’s been in love with her this entire time 😭 I say this too much but this is actually the perfect man 🤭 I’m sorry but he is the first person that she tells she’s pregnant to that is visibly happy for her 🤯 he was in love with her and he found out she was pregnant with a rando’s baby and he’s happy for her?????? 💔 I’m going to mention Ethan even though he pissed me off for the first 3/4s. Eve was too soft on Ethan imo she should have told him to fucking grow a pair and tell his girlfriend that he wants to actually be involved in his own child’s life or prepare to pay child support because the ghosting isn’t an option 👹 I think he finally understood that when she told him that Shep was probably going to be living with the baby like either you act like a father or I got a new baby daddy ready 🫨
Ugh I just remembered Shep meeting her after work and Eve hiding him so no one thought he was baby daddy 🫠 imagine how Shep felt 😢 or when he asked if he could do the birthing classes with her and she said no because she wouldn’t pretend he’s the baby daddy 😭 bro wtf the baby daddy is literally a loser (it’s true) you would be lucky to have him as your baby daddy bitch 🤬
Omg how could I forget Willa 😳 fuck that hoe 🙂↕️ just kidding … mostly but seriously like how do you think Eve feels about this pregnancy will be so fucking for real. She’s single 😣 it was a one night stand 😖 then she finds out he has a crazy girlfriend 😫 Willa are you stupid???? She obviously needs her best friend right now and more than you bitch 😶🌫️ I understand her trauma but like be honest omg you are being needlessly cruel to your friend 😓
I might as well talk about Eve now. I think she had a beautiful arc honestly 🥹 she knew she wanted to keep the baby and said I’ll deal with the rest later which I think is fair when you are unexpectedly pregnant 🤰 what she said about fear and shame 😦 she really said this is my life bitch 🫡 like she decided im going to be honest with myself and I want sexy Shep and when Willa told her no because you’re a mess and I love my brother, she said actually I’ve decided I’m not a mess anymore 🥰 and then her life literally got back on track!! Ethan finally figured it out and started helping, Willa talked to her for real about what she’s comfortable with and what she isn’t, and finally she realized that Shep has been really the father that STEPPED UP 🙂↕️ and he became step daddy 😍
