A review by theboundless_bookworm
Yours Truly by Abby Jimenez

5.0

Trauma is a hard pill to swallow.

"Abby Jimenez's 'Yours Truly' encompasses a multitude of themes. It delves into the complexities of love, addressing topics such as divorce, miscarriage, and both physical and mental health issues. This narrative has the potential to resonate with the readers' current realities or evoke their fears, aspirations, and contemplations. It serves as a poignant reminder that the allure of a book lies not merely in the author's writing style but in its ability to resonate deeply. Bri and Jacob's journey in the narrative has helped me connect the dots between their experiences and my own fears and situations, providing me with valuable perspectives and a lifeline in different ways. Somehow, I experienced a sudden weight off my shoulders, realizing that my own decisions mirrored someone else's in the same situation.

By the book's conclusion, I came to understand that no matter how genuine and authentic someone's love is, it might not be sufficient for someone whose life has been predominantly in the shadows.
