It took a little longer for me to get through this book. There were great little moments throughout, but I just couldn’t get into Kenna’s character. As much as I hate to say it, her relationship with Ledger was very annoying at times. However, the last few chapters of the book made up for a lot and made me really enjoy the ending; even leaving me wanting at least another chapter, or longer epilogue!

Spoiler

One of the characters mentions a couple of times that Kenna’s daughter is kidnapped, and that’s why Kenna can’t see her, but this is not the case and Diem is safe the entire book, she’s frightened by a fight Ledger and Patrick have and begins to cry, but she’s not hurt or mistreated in any way.

It was good! I think it dragged on for way too long and it felt like a chore to finish it, but the storyline was nice! I really, really loved the ending, though I wish we could've seen more of a make-up story with Kenna, Grace, and Patrick. 

*edit*
now that I'm thinking abt it, i really am not a fan. idk it was bleh. whenever someone talks about it i cringe 

would most likely reread it, but not definitely ☑️

The main character is so easy to relate to and proves how that one mess up can actually impact your whole life. The way she feels so consumed by emotion that she can’t show any is very relatable and the way she overcomes that is inspiring. I loved it and couldn’t put it down! I teared up several times but overall a very easy and quick read.
