10/10, literally no notes. I think this is the most accurate representation of social anxiety I’ve ever read. Abby handled the heavy topics in the book with such care and sensitivity. I was literally shaking the book and talking to the characters at times. Not to be dramatic, but this book altered my brain chemistry and I will never be over it. Thank you for this gift of a story.

MFC has past experience with infidelity, and a miscarriage that she has to work through.
MMC has social anxiety that is a big part of the story.
Only explicit sexual content is chapter 39, if you’d prefer to go in knowing that or wanting to skip that content. Many f words throughout.
