A review by tipsybookreads
When We Were by Diana Elliot Graham

5.0

We were not expecting to like this book. As a whole, we do not like miscommunication tropes. They never work for us. But this book IS the exception. As two people who are sick of the typical romance structure and happy endings. This was heartbreakingly refreshing.
It felt real. It felt like this was a true story because it doesn’t always work out how we want. In their own separate ways they got their happy ending. And it’s totally okay that their happy ending didn’t fit in the cookie mold of romance books.

Diane’s writing was so intriguing and kept us guessing the entire time! The spice was unexpected but was definitely “five pepper spice” as Arden would say!! Prepare to feel all of the things, it really was a wild ride.


We would definitely recommend.
