If someone told me when I started this series that Daisy and Ryke’s book would be my favorite… I would have never believed you.

It was soooo nice getting to see more of these characters and they may possibly be my favorites now!! Can’t wait to see what’s next

Wow this book was amazinggg.

Listened to the audiobook version which I highly recommend and Meryl Streep’s voice was just perfect for this story.

All the characters were so lovable (even when sometimes they weren’t, they were somehow still redeemable in my mind) and Sebastian makes it to the list of my favorite book characters to date. I LOVE Saint Sebastian🫶🏼

Everything in this book had a meaning and purpose, down to the names of Lara’s girls. Everything was revealed in perfect timing and the flow of this story was great. Ann Patchett’s writing is just so beautiful.

I need the physical copy of this one day bc I would love to reread and tab/highlight. So good.

She opened her beautiful eyes and looked at me. “This quiet,” she said dreamily. “I know all of your quiets.“

As much as I HATE one of the tropes in here and the characters made me so mad… I was able to overlook that and I LOVED this book. Can’t believe I hadn’t picked up an Abby Jimenez book til recently. Her writing is amazing. And Jacob is so so lovable literally everything about him and all the little details. By the end I was sobbing when all the pieces came together. Also, amazing male anxiety rep.

Shoutout @carlottadolff on Spotify for the fire playlist so here are the songs that I was listening to at the end of the book that rlly got me:

.Someone to You - Empires on Fire
.Notice Me - Role Model
.Mess is Mine - Vance Joy

Onto the next Abby Jimenez book now I’m obsessed!

This is a 6 ⭐️ read for me. I can’t believe I’ve waited this long to pick up one of her books!!! Probably the best romance I’ve read in awhile. The characters and their relationships felt so real and raw and had me so hooked. I don’t have much to say except y’all need to read this book🥰

I knew I would love Rose and Connor’s story and I was sooo right. I was in a bit of a slump when I started this so it took me a bit to get into, but after getting a third of the way through it really picked up and I finished in one sitting. So much drama and things happening, also I just love Rose and Connor’s dynamic.

And the reality show??? Genius idea. THANK YOU FOR THE VILLAIN STORY WOW kept things so interesting. I thought I knew the big scheme at the end (I thought they would make up a lie about Connor and Lily getting together based on hints) so I didn’t see the ending coming. Also a great conclusion of their story too (for now) at the end of this book.

So excited to continue on!!
