What a perfect way to end this 5⭐️ series. 10 books, 17 years, 4 marriages, and 14 children. That’s an amazing feat.
I have grown so connected to these characters, it’s hard to say goodbye. Lily turned out to be stronger and braver than she ever imagined. Lo became the most amazing father, the one thing he never thought he could accomplish. Connor and Rose fight with everything they have for those they love, and they instilled that same confidence in all of their children. Ryke and Daisy were destined to be alone until they met each other, their determination to keep their kids safe born from their struggles.
I cannot wait to continue with the Like Us series after I give myself some time to let this ending soak in.

Ali Hazelwood continues to be an automatic read for me. I’m really hoping we get a second book about alien and Serena.
Misery’s reluctant relationship with Ana is the cutest thing. I loved how her and Lowe’s friendship developed. I’m glad Serena didn’t turn out to be super shady. I was so happy when the pack started to accept her.
Miss Hazelwood has the perfect formula and I will continue to read everything she puts out.

Ryke and Daisy are the most private of the couples and also feel the most responsibility to their siblings. Daisy constantly puts herself on the back burner to ensure her sisters are okay. Ryke worries so much about Lo.
This time, it’s their turn to need help and they’ll just have to learn how to accept that. We see so much growth between all six of them throughout this book and it’s always incredible to see them from different perspectives.
Daisy’s fertility issues really hit home for me, and I was relieved to get such a happy ending. Ryke will be the absolute best girl dad.
Every couple has their own strengths, but Ryke and Daisy refuse to give anything they love up to start their family. In doing so, they’re teaching their kids to run headfirst into any situation.
The epilogue in this book was fantastic, but I am glad we get one more full-length epilogue novel to get all the loving yet heartbreaking moments to the end.

Oliver and Macey are definitely my favorite couple so far in this series. Oliver has major golden retriever vibes and Macey is just so overwhelmingly sweet and compassionate.
It was sad having to see the way that Macey’s parents (specifically her mother) treated her and even threatened to have her daughter taken away. Macey did everything right in raising her daughter, despite having her so young.
I LOVED the bond between Oliver and Mackenzie. She had picked up on all the negativity from her grandparents and never got to be a true kid. Oliver gave her that chance and she thrived.
I always appreciate a romance with no third-act breakup and Jenn always delivers!
