Oh it was absolutely wonderful, full of mutual pinning spanning a whole decade, with enough heart wrenching moments to make me shed some tears yet with a satisfying ending to give me some well deserved emotional catharsis. The descriptions of their vacations were amazing and I can only wish I get to visit some of them, is this god dammed pandemic is ever over. Poppy and Alex just had one of those relationships that are full of superficial contradictions, but at their core are as solid as they get and getting to know their current selves parallel to their younger selves over a decade was delightful. We got to see their bond and themselves grow, and that ever present tension spilling in all the aspects of their lives.
Would absolutely reread and recommend!!
