I don’t know what it is about the illustration style from Sarah Winifred Searle but I love it so much? The main romance storyline was very sweet, but also felt lacking. I felt like this was the kind of story that required a narrator so doing it all in this format didn’t really work as much as I enjoyed others from Searle. That said, I loved the side characters and their storylines. Seeing Gemma taking the steps to fight her agoraphobia was so sweet and I did find myself tearing up at the end of the story for sure. I will also say I actually believed the third act breakup so WELL DONE THERE.
