oh man did i love this book… the storytelling and the way i just connected with jude and noah throughout this book had me so !! i loved how real the characters felt and how they made mistakes and grew from them and became their own people who have each other’s backs despite always being JudeandNoah with one soul. this book had me close to tears many times and crying at least twice. i absolutely adored the family relationships in books and i think this showed such real family dynamics (for the most part) ++ the relationship between noah and brian :(( i wish we got more of them honestly!! could not bring myself to give this 5 stars for the fact they still had oscar and jude end up together despite stressing a page before that he was 19 and she was 16 (+ her not telling him how old she was until he literally found out himself??)

overall a 4.5 star i really enjoyed this book and could see myself rereading in the future!!
