I’d like to start off by saying that i think this book was beautifully written, especially the ending. However, i just couldn’t fall in love with it. I think the main reason why i just found it too cringey and unrealistic, which is way i struggled to emotionally connect with the book. We didn’t really see much of Poppy and Rune’s story, just that they met and instantly fell in love. I also found the fact that none of them ever loved anyone else extremely unrealistic. 

This book had the characteristics for me to fall in love with it, but sadly it wasn’t wholly my cup of tea.
