I enjoyed this book - it’s heartfelt and emotional and imo well researched. I am not sure what I thought going in, but I’m glad it was a little of a surprise. With that being said, this book relies on miscommunication and assumptions, and some of these things are easier to guess than others which might make it a little predictable (I guessed the twist within the first 50 pages). BUT, the point of the book is still worth it. That we make assumptions about people and their actions everyday. And we miss opportunities for love and connection and friendship when we do that. I cried, and felt so much emotion. And that’s a sign of a great book for me.
