I listened to the audio while following in my physical copy ...
I love the rawness and realness in this one. It showcased the toxic environment one has not only in their family but also in a relationship.
I loved the messiness because some of us can relate this to a time in our lives.
At first, I was not too fond of the FMC, but I understood her. Can not immediately switch a way of thinking, especially if that is all you know.
The MMC obviously tried his hardest, and for one who related to his demeanor considering his own upbringing, I loved his character more than anyone else's.
I loved the twist in the book ... I was not expecting that at all. It made this story even more messy and realistic.
Definitely want to reread in the future to reevaluate some things, especially on how I feel about this in general.

I really enjoyed the conclusion of this series. The revelations and the plot twists were 🤌🏽 [on point!]
I was not expecting everything to fall into the place it did, but it definitely made for a great one. So much made sense.
So that I do not give much away, I just want to say that I truly enjoyed this ... a lot!

Wow! I was not sure what to expect on this one, and I have to say I was blown away!
I was captivated right from the beginning and could not put this book down [although I had to force myself to].
I just loved Elliot and Macy 🥹✨️🖤 They were just the written form of what some of us go through in real life ... when you meet someone that you just vibe with, but the Universe had other plans for just a while. And then you run into them again, and BOOM! 💥 back to where it left off!
I cried. I laughed. Overall, this played at my heartstrings 🥹
I already want to buy a physical copy so I can annotate ...

I kind of was surprised with this one ... in the beginning, it was kind of slow, and I honestly was hesitant considering it had that documentary/podcast feel to it.
After getting through the first few chapters, I was intrigued for sure.
I want to say that the author surprised me with those twists and turns ... I was not expecting that twist ... and looking back, some clues were there, yet it was still so well written in by the author.
That ending had me a little slumped tbh ... but i understand it is meant to leave room for interpretation.

I have to say that this is my second book by the author, and I did not know what to expect. I will admit that this one was just as memorable as Hello Beautiful!
There is something intriguing to me about how small the world truly is ... to see it written the way it was in this book, just put it into a written perspective. And I was hooked!
I loved the timeline that skipped post 'event' and during the 'event'.
This is definitely one of those books that have you thinking days after you finish reading it!

I honestly could not get enough of this, and that is the reasoning behind the rating.
The author sure knows how to rope you in and keep your attention until even after finishing the book.
I am still thinking of Lore and Samara!
I loved the way illustrations are even added into the story ... they are beautiful!
I just love the inspiration and the passion behind the author writing this [you can find it in the acknowledgments] ... and after reading it, I could just appreciate this book even more!
I am super excited to read the next book 🙌🏽
