I loved everything about this book! It was the perfect mix of sweet/sad/heartfelt. I cried more than once.

I really enjoy stories with alternate lives and this was basically a hallmark movie. I loved the characters and the glimpses into the lives Lolly could have had. Lolly grew up a lot throughout the book. She was holding a lot on her shoulders. It was nice to see her finally be able to let some of that go.

The ending is SWOONWORTHY. I had a feeling about where it was going and I was so pleased with the way it turned out. I absolutely recommend this one if you’re in the mood for something emotional.
