EASILY OMG THAT TWIST I LOVED SEEING THIS RELATIONSHIP BLOSSOM TO ITS FULL POTENTIAL! WOULD RECOMMEND OMG.
Those were my initial thoughts/reactions when I first finished this book.
Overall, I loved both Marley and Kyle respectively, especially their own journeys battling their own griefs.
As a twin, I really felt for Marley when she was grieving for her sister. Like her feeling responsible for her death made sense cuz I feel responsible for my sister when we cross the street. I was intrigued by Marley as soon as she is introduced. She is a storyteller and continues to be one for her own story, including the ones she makes up.
I enjoyed Kyle’s journey throughout his grief about Kim. It’s understandable as she was in his life since middle school and together since. Seeing him transform from this grieving living in the basement shut-in to a caring and truly loving human being in his relationship with Marley.
The only thing I remember about Sam was he was too drunk for this story.
The plot twist was something I could’ve never expected and made me question if I was reading the same book.
I hope to read more of her books!!!!

However, what I enjoyed the most was the main character's personality. He had no problem with opening up to people, he always talked a lot to and appreciated his mom, which was super cute, and it was refreshing to see a male character so open about his feelings (maybe it's because women wrote him XD)

I fell in love with Marley as a character. We get to meet her and see her at a super low point in her life. She starts to come out of her shell, she starts to come to terms with her grief. I feel like I am able to really relate to her character to some extent. Even after the twist in the end, I find myself loving her character even more.
I have read this book a few times and I have to say it is still as good as I remember. I have recommended this book to every friend that likes romance books. This book will always hold a special place in my heart.
