4.5
This was my first book by this author and it did not disappoint, hence why I gave it 4.5 stars! I loved this book and how much Alexis and Daniel grew as people as the book went on. I loved the rich girl-poor(ish) boy trope and how well it was written. I cannot wait to read the rest of Abby's books as I have heard AMAZING things about them!!
Quotes:
- “Love follows you. It goes where you go. It doesn’t know about social divides or distance or common sense. It doesn’t even stop when the person you love dies. It does what it wants.”
- “Look at that mantrum. Eight thousand nerves in the clitoris and still not as sensitive as a white man not getting his way.”
- “Sometimes family isn't what you're born into. Sometimes family is found.”
- “When you don't care, everything's on your terms. They can take it or leave it. It doesn't matter to you, so ask for whatever the hell you want.”
- “I'd follow a clown into a storm drain if he had a baby goat in pajamas.”
- “I refuse to have sex with someone who doesn’t have a headboard. I’m not that desperate—yet. My vagina has officially been closed for so long I’m afraid a Spirit Halloween is going to move in.”
- “She’d taught me this, primed me for my relationship with Neil. Made me believe that this was what love looked like. Bri was right. I’d been taught to placate assholes. I’d been taught by Mom.”
- “The world is ending, Alexis. That’s what this feels like. So come with me now.”
Tropes:
- Opposites Attract
- Age Gap
- Small Town
- Women in Stem
