I have yet to read an Alison Cochrun book that is not literally one of my favorite books of all time. They’re so well written, well thought out, have insane chemistry and this one was so well done and made me cry for at least half an hour lol

The characters and story are so beautiful and the character growth is insaneeee

I love the ADHD rep. I love the Sapphic and Ace rep. I love the queer joy. I even love the heartbreak and loss. It's been a minute since a book made me cry so much. There were moments when I was frustrated that Logan and Rosemary weren't talking it out like adults, but they figured it out. I like how their relationship accepts both of their idosycracies. I'd love to see them as a cameo or background characters in another book. Just to see them be happy together again.

5.0

Using famous queer people as curses aside, I really enjoyed this book. It's a heavier book than Cochrun's first two books, but has the same delightful humor.

This is a big heartstrings-pulling story, and I applaud the author for also making it so funny and charmingly romantic. It took me longer than usual to get through because I read it in ebook, and audio is my preferred medium for this genre.

It's definitely a cheesy, trope-y read at times, which is both a pro and a con in my books. My biggest critique would be that the author leans a bit too heavily into queer, sapphic, and neurodivergent stereotypes. At times, this felt alienating... and, at other times, it felt clunky and awkward.

I don't know that I would describe this reading experience as "feel-good", because it deals very heavily and very intimately with dying and grieving a loved one. It is, however, an emotional read that includes a romantic resolution.
