Never put up with anyone treating you with even a hint of cruelty. It’s always a sign of bad things to come.

I found Maddie's choices really annoying. I caught myself rolling my eyes several times because of her poor decisions. Every time she made a bad choice, I had to put my Kindle down and remind myself to breathe. I understood where she was coming from, but some of her choices seemed stupid, especially when it came to her and her loved ones' safety. What irritated me even more was that people around her just coddled her with her choices instead of being honest about the mistakes she made. (PSA: I'm only referring to the bad choices she made after returning to Cedar Ridge, not before, so please don't come at me.)

I read this right after finishing Whispers of You, and Echoes of You felt like a copy-paste version of the former

(main characters being in love since childhood, female main character [FMC] having a traumatic past, male main character [MMC] feeling the need to protect the FMC, FMC having a dog, similar form of attack on the FMC, the FMC being kidnapped... you get the point)

. However, I still enjoyed it, but I can't shake off how similar the two books were.

If I liked the Hartleys in Whispers of You, I fell in love with them (and their small town) while reading Echoes of You. I can't seem to stop reading about these characters. I hope I'll get to see more of Roan, Caden and Aspen in the next books.

Nash has to be one of my favorite mmc’s that I have read this year! This book would be perfect if it didn’t have so many mysteries and plots happening at the same time. I wanted more Nash and Maddie scenes, but understand that Catherine was probably trying to set up the characters for the later books in the series!
