THE GOOD: I loved the disability representation in this. I loved that Bo was attentive and sympathetic even though he didn't understand what Win was going through. I loved Sarah and Caleb and their friendship with Win and the banter between all the characters was so good. And I loved that the book was set in Canada. I really liked the epilogue, too.

THE BAD: The story is only told from Win's POV and I feel like it would have been even better if we had Bo's POV, too. I also felt that the middle dragged a bit.

Favourite quote: "You are my soul's purpose, Win. To know you, to love you, to build a family with you, to spend every day taking care of you, to watch you shine and get all the good things you deserve out of this life."
