ok this book is so beautiful. the vibes and aesthetic are astronomical and the romance is bittersweet. it’s definitely a character driven book.the arc of both amelia and nolan helping each other with their grief and fears is so fucking lovely, but because of their consumation with their respective greivances it makes it so both characters are sort of flat. amelia has some whole ass parental issues but they can't be touched on because jenna is dead and she has to fall in love with nolan. wally highkey annoys the shit out of me and i wish he was a cat bc this book just gives cat vibes. jenna is highkey controlling and ik she meant well and thought it was what amelia wanted, but it's still fucked to plan someone's whole life. i'm pretty sure there's even a part where jenna picks amelia's career only because she got good grades in that subject, and doesn't take into account what AMELIA wanted to do. i kind of wish amelia’s relationship with her mom was touched on more, i know the point is that the orman chronicles and jenna’s parents gave her a family when hers didn’t show up, but her mom might as well not exist as a character until the one chapter when amelia needs a reason to go back to nolan. also making out for the first time in front of your dead sisters' graves. NO. other than those few gripes, this book actually means a lot to me. it has my favorite epilogue i've read ever and one of the most beautiful romance stories i've seen. the writing style is just how i like it. also whatever alex is getting paid is not enough.
