This book was so incredibly raw and real. Being someone who has struggled with accepting and managing mental health needs, I connected so much with Yasmen. Obviously our experiences were different in so many ways. But the feeling of regret and learning to voice your needs and desires was shared so well in this book. I also loved the dual POV and seeing Josiah go through his own healing journey. Definitely check trigger warnings for pregnancy trauma, depression, and divorce. But, if you are able, I would recommend this book to the moon and back.
