reading this after recently finishing pet was very interesting lol but regardless of the genre i rly do like the way emezi writes!! wish there was more on joy bcos i rly liked her + her relationship with feyi
i liked feyi and alim as individuals but idk how i felt abt them together? i didn't hate it yk they were cute i quite enjoy stories about second chance romance and the growth that comes in order to or as a result of falling in love and learning to be vulnerable and opening yourself up to even the possibility of love after so much grief!!!! but. that was nasir's dad😭😭 but i also did not like nasir enough to care abt him like that so lol
