Some might enjoy a good HEA, but I found that this lacked conflict and consequences. There were no moments where I felt anxious for any of the characters or their outcomes.Graphic: Toxic relationship, Lesbophobia, and Panic attacks/disorders

I enjoyed all of the characters and how they interacted. I cried at a lot of the parts! I would 100% recommend this book. I would love to read more of this author and I loved that she explained the inspiration for the book at the end and that allowed for great insight!

While I really enjoyed the characters and following their bonds forming, I would have preferred Bea's character to be more fleshed out than having a supporting character role. It seemed/felt like she was used as a bit of a device to make the Ionas character look good and to have more struggles for her character to work with.
