hannahelaine's review against another edition
I honestly don’t even have thoughts on the romance or even the plot because that has overshadowed everything else for me. I feel weird about it and I’m just not going to continue.
Finally, this is a little more a nitpick than criticism on the book, but some content warnings would be good to put in this one. There’s a lot of extremely dangerous self-harming situations. I didn’t know this going in, and recently have been having pretty bad mental health issues requiring partial hospitalization. Luckily It didn’t throw my mood or thoughts in a bad direction, but it could have. A little warning ahead of time would have been nice.

"I liked everything about you. Even the scary parts."
This was a funny, raw, second-chance romance that opened my eyes and crumpled my heart.
Tia Williams' writing is unafraid to confront a painful past for the sake of true healing and happiness. If you want to read on motherhood, on breaking generational curses, on race in America, on chronic illness, on addiction, on the Mortifying Ordeal of Being Known ™️—but all of that with easy humour and grace through characters that feel like genuine people—read this!
