Love and Other Words by Christina Lauren
4.0
↦ 183/108
Love and Other Words is a beautiful and fast-paced love story.
I have heard about this book for about a year now, but didn't really blink an eye since I wasn't the biggest fan of Christina Lauren's other popular release, The Unhoneymooners. It's safe to say that this book exceeded my expectations and almost made me cry on multiple occasions. I borrowed this copy from my cousin, but definitely need to get one for my own collection because I really did/ do love this one.
I read Every Summer After by Carley Fortune last month and it was often compared to this one. I will say this book did the story so much better in my opinion, but both stories are fantastic on their own as well :) It also reminded me a bit of One True Loves by Taylor Jenkins Reid too!
If you're looking for a heartwrenching, childhood-friends-to-lovers story that is heartbreaking in more ways than one, I HIGHLY recommend this one.
