definitely a summer read, glad i read it during summer.
the dynamic between alex and poppy is so raw, so special, so unique, i feel like words arent enough.
one thing that really spoke to me (🤭), is that feeling of loneliness poppy described when you realised that you could never know someone truly and completely. i was shocked when i read it, as it has been something i have been thinking about myself as well. my last few weeks it’s been consuming my thoughts, and to see someone else think the EXACT same thing has been surprising, and comforting, to say the least.

the moment they said “i love you” to each other, i felt like the words ‘i love you’ weren’t enough. like, after over a decade of loving each other, such simple words couldn’t explain the complexity behind their emotions. i wish there was something stronger than ‘i love you’, and if there was, it would be for them
