This is the 6th book by Alexis Hall I’ve finished and I’ve gotta say I love his work.
This book made me cry, frustrated me, and made me deeply sympathize and fall in love with several of the characters.
I thought that the specific perspective of what happens after a long term relationship ends and how that can still affect someone to be a very fresh and interesting concept and it 100% delivered several times over.
I did get the version with the bonus content at the back and for ease of access if you’re going to do that I recommend a paper copy so you can easily flip through the book back and forth.
If you don’t want to do that then I would recommend the ebook and bookmarking basically every page with a star on it to look back at later. I would not recommend the audiobook if you are interested in the annotation section of the bonus content.
