4.5

The thing about Taylor Jenkins Reid’s books is that they sink their claws into you. They’re ridiculously engaging, her characters are whole and terribly real, and you can’t help becoming so invested in the story unfolding on the page in front of you that you can hardly breathe. This might be the only TJR book that hasn’t made me cry, but it made my chest ache in a way that only deep connection and an abundance of feels can.
