this book SHOCKED me to say the least. i was not expecting to love this even half as much as i ended up doing so.
it was hilarious and beautiful and full of angst and made my heart ache so much. it was so much fun to watch their relationship grow and evolve over the years.
ilya and shane are one of my new favorite couples for sure. needless to say, i cannot freakin WAIT to read the continuation of their story in The Long Game. from what reviews i’ve read so far, it doesn’t seem like an unnecessary extension, so i’m excited to see what they’ve been up to🥰🥰🥰
