I firstly want to thank Chris for giving me this eARC in exchange for a honest review.

This was a fantastic story, I believe it really helped portray grief and depression very well. You empathise with Grayson so easily and you follow the story just to see it all work out for him. You want him to be happy, you want him to figure it out, but you understand his reasons. 

Aubrey was definitely my favourite and I really admired her and left me thinking we gotta be our own Aubrey! We all often get stuck in our little "bubble" when we have our difficulties. And I really admired how her character gave Grayson something to live for. 

It was nice to see that she had supporting him for so long too that but really got me feeling! She was more than how people saw her, Gray saw the real Aubrey and I really loved their relationship. 

I loved the mystery of who was the one texting Gray? And when we found out who it was I did have a suspicion but I was still shocked! Really caught me off guard in the end. 

This was such a well wrote story, and I definitely consider it probably one of the best books I've read in quite some time. Chris is a talented author and I look forward to seeing more of his work soon!
