A weirdly fun book full of unlikely coincidences, absences of communication until almost and sometimes too late, inability to listen to themselves and each other, fear of honesty, and ultimately everything going back into their rightful places.

I knew there would be pandemic talk going in because on the back it says “pandemic boyfriend” but I was not expecting to read about it throughout the whole book. It’s way too soon and it felt privileged they way the characters in this book experienced the pandemic. At no time did I ever know where this book was going with all the characters back stories. Everyone had a crazy secret and that’s the only thing that kept me reading,  family drama!
