I don’t know what to say. The beginning of the book, I thought their relationship was, well, cringy. I didn’t feel any chemistry throughout most of the book. And the concept of Matt’s perspective being 15 years future, then them back in college 15 years before, then back to the future again but with an expected twist, made the book bad. There wasn’t much of a consistent flow. And toward the end of the book, they were so hot and cold I wanted to give up on it. It was like hey, right person wrong time, but the plot just wasn’t great. Overall, I wouldn’t recommend.
Moderate: Drug use, Sexual content, Alcohol
