Say You'll Remember Me by Abby Jimenez

3.5

challenging emotional sad medium-paced

Plot or Character Driven: Character

Strong character development: Yes

Loveable characters: Complicated

Diverse cast of characters: Complicated

Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

Unfortunately, I found this book to be really boring and repetitive. I empathized with the characters and like them in theory, but I couldn’t quite connect with them emotionally enough to fully engage with the story — especially when so much of this story is about their family hardships and less about their romance. Abby Jimenez isn’t a romance author for escaping into the fantasy of a romcom; she serves up tragedy and pain on the same plate as the romantic relationship. Usually I’m fine with that, but in this book’s case, I struggled.
