This book was so good it threw me into a reading slump for a few days because nothing could amount to this level. I love stories that let’s us grow up with the characters, it’s gives you a deeper connection. I loved the boy Finny, he was very sweet which made the ending even worse. From chapter one we now what happens at the end but we don’t know how, and the end reveal was more crushing then I expected. Loved it and loved how the author realistically wrote teenagers. Plus, points for the main character Autumn who has a passion for writing & wants to major in it just like I do.
