In several chapters of the beginning of this story, I might think seems like I would love Eliza much that I could feel the same struggle as hers. Alas, the more I read the more I can't relate and somehow I don't like Eliza's decisions here. I got less excited especially the bridging before she feels she falls in love with Caz and vice versa because the whole story dominantly was focused on Eliza, little talking about Caz in an intimate point of view in my opinion. Thus, I can't fully into their feeling towards each other. Something missing, just it. I wish I could dive into Caz's feeling deeper and have his point of view towards Eliza. It was also sad that the ending was just like that? I have to admit that I love I Hope This Doesn't Find you more than this.
