The first part of this book was amazing, I thought it would be 5 stars, and I was actually enjoying it a lot until page 231!!! but then things started to go downhill and I hated it so so much. Dan and his relationship with Grace creeped me out so much, and the fact that they got married??? Wtf! I also absolutely hate the miscommunication trope, and it made no sense at all in this book!!! And the unexpected pregnancy? No thank you! It made me sad how much this book made me angry, and even though I liked most of it, I can’t give it more than 2 stars for that stupid ass ending grrrr

This is a no from me. Did not like the characters whatsoever, they were childish and they just kept on whining... I found the characters super toxic, and the relationship even more. The maincharacters did not grow at all they were the same throughout the whole story that spans over 15 years and NOTHING happened with them as characters.

I liked the main characters in this book and I thought the progression of their relationship was very realistic, at least when it comes to the chapters in the past. However, everything in the present seemed rushed and too convinient and unrealistic, especially the very end. This book once again prooves how much I hate miscommunication. I wasn't a big fan of the plot twist either, even though I saw it coming before it was revealed.
