Oof. That was HEAVY. When I started it, I didn’t realize it was connected to the author’s other book, The Words, which I freaking LOVED. This book was super angsty and emotional. I understand why Josh is the way he is, rightfully so, but he’s a manipulative asshole and, while I feel for him, I kinda hate his guts. This book ends when the three leads are all 18, so I’m looking forward to the next part of the duet to see if it closes the gap to where they are in The Words, or maybe even goes a little beyond.
