This. was. so. GOOD. I expected this to break my heart, and it definitely delivered on that front. I read an MTV book waaaay back in the day called I Heart You, You Haunt Me, and this felt like a more modern version of that. I loved that book when I read it so that left me really excited for this one. I loved how it jumped between then and now so there was a full look at Sam and Julie's relationship. It was really intense for how short it was but I found their love super believable, which made it all the more heartbreaking. I think Julie's struggles with grief seemed like an accurate depiction to me, and one that you don't see often in books. It makes her a bit of an unlikeable character which was an interesting twist. Seeing her transformation throughout the book made me root for her all the more. For me this book definitely lived up to the hype and was a super strong debut!

My Library just got this book :)
so excited to add this to my tbr thanks for the rec
does it have a happy ending? do they end up together?
I also want to know if it has a happy ending. I’m ready to read any kind of story if it has a happy ending but not if it has a sad one…
It's my first time using this app, please where is the book? I can only see a review of the book n your comments but where is the pages?

Yes yes yes!!! I 1000% agree with everything you’ve said! Especially about Julie near the beginning of the book. I hated her to be honest when I first started it😅 But by the end of the book I’ve grown to love her so dearly. Watching her transform and her growth, and almost feeling like I was going through it myself, was magical.
*tig wrote : does it have a happy ending? do they end up together?*Well the book starts with the death of the male protagonist so I won't say happy ending. But it's a satisfactory ending
Hey ! I was wondering if a 14y old can read this books .....
Sanikar_reads said “ Hey ! I was wondering if a 14y old can read this books …..” Yes of course you can I’m a teen to and this book was perfectly fine to read but death is also mentioned here but I think thats okay for a teen to read.
This book made me cry way too many times!
