True love. The kind between soul mates. Love that she and Josh could never have. Except that falling asleep in his arms felt disconcertingly right.

i didn't expected to enjoy this book as much as i did and yet here we are. i love josh and clara's banters and angsty pining and flaring tension towards each other it makes me want to scream (but in a good way). this is such an underrated book that i wished people talked about more. i love the dual povs of the characters and how i see their perspectives towards one another. i also love the wonderfully executed build-up of slow burn and tension inside this book, it's like properly giving you some candy treats you could taste without being too sweet or too much so you could still be capable of craving of it more. overall, i really enjoyed this book and i Shamelessly (cue the reference) devoured every second of it.
