This is the kind of book that is fluff with a sprinkling of emotional content. Don’t get me wrong, I love love love that kind of book. It felt very quick and short but I also don’t feel like it needed to be longer. You get the full story and some details and fun interactions with the side characters too. I would definitely recommend giving it a read but also to read the other books in the universe first! there were so many little moments that would have a larger impact if you read the other books too, which is something that I love. Thoroughly enjoyed 🫶🏼

Beautifully emotional book with a level 4-5 🌶️ rating. I absolutely devoured this book in just a few days. It was very hard to put down, especially in the last 10-15 chapters. It deals with grief so beautifully but truthfully. I’m a sucker for romance where the mc’s are just really soft with each other and I definitely got my fill here. Definitely well worth the read <3

Every chapter ripped my heart out and squeezed a little tighter than the last. The love between each character is heart wrenchingly beautiful and unmatched to any other book I’ve ever read. Never have I read about so many deep relationships in the one book. I’d sell my soul to read it for the first time again <3

Heart-wrenching and brutally honest about everything to do with mental illness. Tears were shed but laughter still remained through the whole thing. A refreshing take on life, love and coping mentally. These characters have my whole heart <3
