I absolutely adored this book! I’m not usually a first person POV person, but Hannah does it SO well that I don’t even miss the second persons perspective.
Win is such a relatable FMC. I love her sass, how she’s fiercely independent, and how she’s just so real and upfront about her insecurities. I also appreciated how some went away as the story went on, but some did not. I liked how realistic it is and that some things just stick with us for a while- even when we find someone who loves us for who we are.
And Bo- oh my goodness he is such a sweet guy. His touch of nerdiness (the “I’m having a baby with a Lord of the Rings virgin” had me cackling), his thoughtful gestures & how he just kept showing up for Win, even when she tried to push him away, showed his deep love for her throughout.
I highly recommend picking this book up when it re-releases in just a couple of weeks! I know I’ll be getting my physical copy ASAP 🤍
