Oh my poor little heart. The pain it has to go through. This book was amazing. Character development 10/10 and plot development was even better. The flow of the story was so clean and so beautiful. Joey is just a beautiful child and I just wanna give her chocolate and hug and watch cartoon. I just wanna give Beck cake and tell him everything is going to be alright. And I want to best friends with August and hang out with her pets. The story did a feature romance and it was done well in a way that it didn’t seem force, no insta love and didn’t romanticised the issue. The ending was probably my favourite, so much things happen and it was so tense and I just couldn’t let go of the book. Everything about the book was amazing and lovely.
The only problem I had that didn’t involve with the book was that it was third person and I have never read a contemporary so far in 3rd POV. It just took me a couple of chapter get past it.
I recommend to everyone and I think everyone should give it a chance. It’s such a good book with deals with a heavy topic in a really good way without offending anyone. The story is beautiful and worth being heard.
