Wow I loved this book. I’m a fan of differing timelines, and this book reminded me a lot of the movie The Lake House and Oona Out of Order. I loved how supportive Ewan was of Isla throughout, and the emphasis on mental health and how he encouraged her to want to live for herself. I think it conveyed a good message about the importance of loving yourself and getting help and being open with those you love. It’s a very emotional book for sure and make sure to take note of the content warnings.
