 I LOVED Summer and Anthony. If Freddie and Tristan's love story felt seamless, this felt even more like melted butter on toasted bread. It was just the right amount of everything. The right amount of burn, the right amount of self loathing, of self discovery, it went through the self before getting to the couple first and I just love love the character's growth here. I just wanted to take those two and wrap them in bubbles by suspending time. 

It was honestly agonizing at one point that things did not move faster, although it was refreshing because it stayed true to the characters. So it's definitely a very slow read and while I found Anthony really endearing, I can also see why others would be annoyed by his issues.

I really enjoyed this story. It was eye-opening to see what Anthony was feeling. I cannot imagine how hard that would be to navigate in life. I appreciate the care that the author gave this because, while it is a detrimental diagnosis, it doesn't mean that he cannot experience the joys of life a different way. I loved that summer gave him the ability to not only navigate those feelings but to embrace the changes. If there was ever a leading hero that deserved his love story, it was this man.

I'm enjoying these friendships and see how these four distinctly different friends find happiness.

Olivia Hayle est définitivement une belle découverte. J'ai adoré ce tome, encore plus que le premier. Je suis épatée par le fait qu'elle réussit à bâtir une histoire avec des personnages complexes en à peine 300 mots. J'aime que les personnages de ce tome, tout comme le premier, prennent le temps de s'occuper d'eux-mêmes avant de se lancer dans une relation. Ça démontre une belle maturité que je ne retrouve pas toujours dans les romances.
