Tengo que admitir que el libro termino gustandome más de lo que esperaba. Cuando comencé a leerlo y comprendí que uno de los protagonistas era un artista y la otra protagonista su fan, me decepcione terriblemente. Me imaginé el peor fanfiction de todos los tiempos. Pero tengo que decir con toda la confianza del mundo que no fue así.

Los protagonistas se complementaron de una buena manera y el plot twist a mitad de la historia tenía una buena base, pero a su vez sorprendió de muy grata manera. Considero que un buen libro que trata temas bastante profundos de la manera correcta; sobretodo uno que no he visto que discutan mucho en el género: como continuar tu vida después de una pérdida.

De verdad me lleve una grata sorpresa y estoy agradecida por haber escogido esta historia durante uno de mis meses de First Reads.

I LOVED this book! Did not want to put it down. I love stories when it isn’t just about the love, it’s about the drama and trauma the characters individually go through. They both had their own stories and I felt it with them.

I guessed the little twist that it had of Reese not being Emery’s. Only because of a comment Oliver made about her looking like Emery and it made her sad. And having the flashback of Oliver and Alex meeting a pregnant woman and sister I immediately knew it wasn’t emery that was pregnant. If I didn’t guess it the shock factor would have been wow and made it a 5 star to be honest.

Nonetheless, I absolutely loved loved this book as I do with all of this authors books.

This hit harder then I was expecting.

“Every person in this world has a mixtape of sorts, a collection of tracks that defines their lives. Each memory is a song, and they all come together to create a masterpiece.”
-Abigail

Between the way the characters let music be their voice and the feelings of wanting to be loved by family, this made me feel like someone gets me. Such a strong story and a great way to tackle feelings and social media trolls. Everyone needs an Abigail in their lives. Some of her quotes have been saved to read when my feelings are too much.

How Oliver and Emery were able to rise out of their darkest times is beautiful. Just being in your feelings can be rough. You are your own worst enemy, and that sucks when you have no one to snap you out of it. No one to remind you of how wonderful and important you are. Then we have social media. Keyboard warriors can make you hide under a rock because you let them make your already defeated feelings seem real. If others say out loud what you are feeling, it must be true. Right? Finding the right people who will lift you up, stand with you on good days and bad, those are your family. Those are the ones that you take advise from and listen to. Not the ones that only judge you on your post or what others have said about you.

How these two bonded over music is wonderful. Music is so strong. It can pump you up, calm you down, let you get lost in emotion, or just put a smile on your face. Being able to express their thoughts and feelings with songs because they didn’t have the courage to find words on their own was touching and beautiful. This was something I felt in my soul.
