okay okay. it was a *fun* fast read for in between books. now that i know more authors coho isn’t on my top list anymore, but I can still see why she has been before. the book is sad, but hopeful. did touch my feelings (might’ve not helped that it’s 1:30AM that I finished it) anyway I ugly cried at the end and def a recommendation for if you need a fast-paced/ easy-to-read book :)

Some lovely moments in this book, but not my favourite one from Colleen Hoover - I did like the overall ending though and the parts with Cap were super sweet

This book was absolutely amazing. It made me have all the emotions especially in the last about 100 pages. I was bawling my eyes out at the end so grab tissues. The cover of the book is so traumatizing now.

I didn’t really enjoy this book. The characters are not very interesting and you don’t care about them or what happens to them.
The plot was really annoying, the MC just complains the whole time about a situationship she could just leave. The female lead isn’t written with a character arc, ant development and is weak, her whole life is around this man who is focal about there not being a future yet she sticks around. Not interesting.

"Tate" he says. He's facing his door, and he doesn't turn around to finish his sentence. "Sometimes a man's spirit just ain't strong enough to withstand the ghost from his past." He opens the apartment door and walks inside. "Maybe that boy just lost his spirit somewhere along the way" He closes his door and leaves me attempt to decipher even more confusion.

Moment when he leaves.
Because he always leave.

"I don't want to swim anymore," He says, sliding his lips from the base of my throat all the way up to my mouth again. "Well, then, what do you want to do?" I whisper weekly. "You" he says without hesitation "In my shower. From behind" I swallow a huge lump of air and feel it all the way to the pit of my stomach. "Wow. That's very specific."
"And also in my bed" he whispersed. "With you on top, still soaking wet from the shower." I inhale sharply, and we can both hear the tremble of my breath I exhale
"Okay," I tried to say,but his mouth is on mine before the word is even all the way out.

"Listen,Tate," I tell her. "I want your mess. I want your clothes in my bedroom floor. I want your toothbrush in my bathroom. I want your shoes in my closet. I want your mediocre leftovers in my fridge." She laughs at that. "Oh, and I almost forgot," I say, pulling the other box for my pocket. I hold it up between us and open it, revealing the ring. "I also want you in my future.Forever."
