I don’t know what I was expecting, but it was definitely not this.
Deep, that’s how I would describe this book.
I mean, now that I think about it.. this is actually the style of Rebecca’s writing. She already blew my mind with “In Five Years” and this is very similar in some ways.
Daphne receives a paper with a name and the amount of time she will be with that person every time she’s involved in a relationship. Every. Time. And it always ends like a clockwork. But, is it truly the destiny’s making or is it the decisions that she makes based on the knowledge that she’s got?
I struggled a bit at the beginning with the past and present chapters, and sometimes they even mix in the same chapter. But once you get it, it becomes easier to read.
The story is good, it didn’t blew my mind like In Five Years, but it was good. It’s short too so that helps. But I couldn’t really connect with the characters.
🌷 It’s a roller coaster of emotions as the main character learns that you should live your life in the fullest possible because is the only one you have.
