I’ve had this book on my bookshelf for almost two years… I picked it up this morning and finished it this evening. I read some of the reviews before starting it (I try not to as I’m easily persuaded), but I’m so glad I didn’t put it back on my shelf unread.
I thoroughly enjoyed this novel. It’s dual POV which is one of my favs. It follows Aidan as he navigates his “new norm” after returning home from Afghanistan with the loss of his arm, PTSD, and grief. It also follows Kate who is struggling to come to terms either her type one diabetes diagnosis while also going through a breakup.
It’s a YA novel so important to keep that in mind while reading.
