Loved this book, it’s one I would love to experience reading for the first time again 😭 a complicated and heartfelt romance that was emotionally raw and that handled intense, difficult life experiences—substance use and recovery, invisible disabilities, racism, poverty, toxic relationships—with so much care. This book was also balanced with such good humor and LOL moments for me personally, and I appreciated the Black pop culture references, both the obscure and the obvious. There was a subplot that I really wish would’ve been given more time & room to breathe, and I felt like the way it impacted a central character was a bit rushed. Regardless, I thoroughly enjoyed this & will likely be rereading next year + looking to get into Tia Williams other writing - 10/10 would recommend
