A review by jjenkins
Things We Never Got Over by Lucy Score

emotional tense fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

3.5

I did not like either the MCs personalities, but it was written very well that their personalities made 100% sense. This book is not a typical romance novel, because the main female character truly has a messy life. If you like a combination of a HEA and serious dramatic life events, this is a great read.
