TITLE: Inseparable
GENRE: Contemporary Romance
AUTHOR: Siobhan Davis
TROPE: Friends-to-Lovers
TYPE: Standalone
POV: Multiple POV
MY RATING: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ / 5
Inseparable is the story of three best friends and their love for each other. The storyline moved at a good pace with lots of angst and twists I did not see coming. The storyline is sometimes dark, so I suggest checking out the trigger warnings if you have any triggers. Some of the content was heavy, but I enjoyed this story of love and loss. I both loved and hated Angelina, Devin & Ayden at times, which showed me how invested in the storyline I was. I am giving a rating of 4 / 5 Stars.

So many thoughts and so little emotions.
This book was such a let down for me. I have been looking forward to trying one of this authors work for quite some time and I was just not overly impressed. This book just missed the mark for me on so many levels.
I think my general disinterest starting with the fact the for majority of the book this is set in high school. I'm not a huge fan of smutty romance books set in the age group. Don't get me wrong there is nothing wrong with 17 years old having sex if its consensual and safe however I just don't want to read about it. In most cases I don't find it hot or sexy.
Once we eventually switched over to the college timeline I was already just not super invested in the characters. I had a hard time remembering which boy was which and their current relationship with the main character. They were very different boys however sometime I would be reading about one of them and catch myself asking wait which one is this. Not the best thing to do especially when you are supposed to be rooting for a specific relationship to become a thing.
Other than my lack of interest in the characters I just felt the pacing was a little bit weird and left me checking to see how much longer until the book was over. This book also has a ton of trigger warnings that I was not aware about before starting, but nothing that I was overly put off by. Just surprised. This story all together was a sad story to read but I just couldn't find it in myself to feel a single bit of emotion regarding all the horrific things that happened towards the end of this book. (and as an emotion bitch who also happens to be 7 months pregnant, and literally cries at everything!! That is saying something)
I did enjoy the dedication that the main love interest had for Angie and his unwavering commitment for their future. I love seeing that in a hero so that was quite refreshing. I do think the harder topic that were broached and or discussed in heavy detail were a bit heavy handed. I can obviously acknowledge that there are many individuals that have experienced what Aiden goes through in this book I don't know it just didn't work for me in this story. Not to discount anyone that has gone through that and made those same choices but as a reader, regarding a fictional story, I didn't understand it.
I'm really bummed I didn't love this one because I did get a special edition in a book box that is absolutely stunning but I don't see myself ever revisiting this book or really recommending it in the future. I will however, try something else by this author at another time.
