This book made me cry no less than 3 times. The rawness of emotions and the journey Colleen Hoover takes you on is unreal. I loved every second of Ledger and Kenna's story and Diem's wittiness and love.

Omg the amount of tears I have shed from reading this book are unreal. The pains, the trauma, and the happy parts were all worth the read. Such a good book!!

This book isn't something I'd normally read but I rather enjoyed it. I felt that the perspectives on grief were accurate and truthful to the characters. Though I enjoyed the shorter chapters that I felt helped move the story along at a good pace most of the time, I did feel the story slowed and lagged in a couple spots. Overall though, I was into the story and was rooting for the main chapters and hoping they would be able to get their happy ending. I appreciated the struggles the characters went through and bringing things like the impact of losing a child and of the justice system to the forefront. As I noted, this isn't my typical read so I'm not sure I'll seek out more of her books, but I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to others.

The amount of ugly crying I had with this book, lol. I absolutely loved it! I did skip some descriptions towards the end where I just wanted to know if Kenna would get her wishes, and what would happen with Ledger and Diem. I appreciate Colleen delivering this book so much!
