The Song: The Man by Taylor Swift
Sleep is Always they Answer
Don't let the amount of time it took to read this feel you, viewers. Work has been super busy and I haven't been able to listen, but I'm getting back on track.
I also want to start doing a different set up for my reviews so bear with me while I get that formatting sorted out.
The Favorite quote
"When I don't want to deal with something, sleep is the answer. Always."
The Characters
Max: Sweet, sweet Max. I could not have loved you more, even in your stupidest moments.
Lina: Lina, baby. I am so so glad you found someone to be your safe space. It is important to me that everyone find their safe space.
The Things I Loved
I loved the way that Max became Lina's safe space. It meant so much to me as someone who is "super emotional" and working not to be. I want someone that I can cry in front of and not worry about how they are going to react to the tears. I want a Max.
The Things I Didn't Love
It took a lot of reminding for me to remember that Max was the reason for Lina and Andrew's failed wedding. If it weren't for being reminded of this, the way Lina treated Max a large part of this book bothered me. I honestly wanted to see them reconcile a lot sooner, but when keeping that in mind, I could understand and get behind it.
The Final Thoughts
Once I finally got through the book, I adored it so much. The representation was beautiful and I adore Mia Sosa's writing. I fully plan on reading her entire backlog.
