A funny enjoyable Romcom with a hint of The Glass Castle that also feels like a really good therapy session!
I don't toss out 5 stars easily, but this one earned it!
What happens when 2 people with the same apparent curse, to be 'the one before The One' date each other?
I knew when I finished this book I'd be missing these characters like long time friends. It will definitely be a re-read!
Abby has a special way telling stories that cover heavy subjects while being funny and healing to both the characters and reader.
Every one of her books has made me laugh out loud, swoony grin and cry real tears - Every. Single. One.
If you've read Abby's other books, the easter egg game in this one is so good!
