i missed what attracted dylan and addie to each other beyond physical attraction and memories of a good summer - and it does not help that their flaws get a bit more screentime than their qualities. but accepting that they are in love and want to be together, i appreciate the exploration of a "right person, wrong time" relationship. dylan and addie were both very young and insecure in their past timeline, and i like how beth o'leary elaborated on that and the influence of their personal struggles on the couple's dynamic.
i personally like that this was not an easy-breezy rom-com and was rougher around the edges, it was just light enough for me.

Dylan is a "nice guy", his best friend Marcus is a twat, and Addy is a bit more likable but honestly I got sick of her too.
This is probably my least fave of Beth's works which also includes The Switch.
Ah, well, up and over.
