I love Abby Jimenez’s books. And I liked this one too.. I just.. I’m not sure. Maybe I need to ruminate for a while. It felt  pretty steady basic romcom- like (miscommunication was driving me crazy and Kristen’s gas lighting was also annoying). But with 100 pages left or so it took some turns… I’m not sure why they were there or what the point of adding them were and I was kind of hoping it wouldn’t end the pretty unrealistic way that it did but.. 🤷🏼‍♀️ 
It wasn’t my most favorite AJ book

I don’t know how to feel. did I cry? yes. did I like it? I guess. did I hate it. absolutely. 

I was mostly enjoying the first 3/4 (despite thinking the FMC was annoying) but the last quarter ruined it for me.
Brandon dying pissed me off. I think just as much could have been accomplished by him being hurt and surging too. the whole getting together and pining after each other while dealing with the death seems tacky to me, maybe it happens in real life too, but I hated it. I cried for Sloane, I was more invested in their relationship which DIED than the characters it was supposed to be about. idk if I want to read Sloane find her person in the next book.

I’ve loved other books by this author, but had a hard time with the immaturity of the characters in the beginning. I was also incredibly frustrated by Kristin’s absolute unwillingness to talk to Jacob about her concerns. The twist was incredibly graphic and while I did appreciate how well several difficult subjects were handled I just found myself too often wanting to send all the characters to therapy. It was fine. I’m not upset I read it. But it just wasn’t a hit for me.

Oh god...j'ai trouvé ce livre si fâchant. L'histoire tourne principalement autour d'un manque de communication entre les deux personnages principaux et se termine par une tragédie...j'ai beaucoup plus apprécié le deuxième livre de la série. Tout au long du roman je ne me répétais qu'une chose : mais parlez vous bon sang! Bref à éviter si la trope de la «miscommunication» vous irrite.
