okay i loved bellefleur's first book and really thought i'd love this one too, but i keep CRINGING so hard at so many details in it... the fact that she's named TRULY is bad enough, but the fact that her parents only talk in broadway song titles?!? you're kidding me. i can't. don't even get me started about how many times truly describes colin as "mole-splattered"??? also here's a line that stopped me in my tracks: "she smiled and – she was smiling." ...that's the writing vibe.

the chemistry between truly and colin just doesn't seem believable to me, and i didn't buy into their journey together, and it just ... didn't work for me.
