TJR has sold me! This is my second Reid book and 4 chapters before I finished the book, I went to buy another one of her works! The pacing is PERFECT, suspenseful and delicious. Her back and forth is so fun that it keeps me constantly anticipating. If you love books that explores the butterfly effect of a single choice then THIS ONE is for you! It’s the dream of a what-ifer.

Still as cute as I remember! I enjoyed the writing and pacing. It’s children’s fantasy so I’m using it to slow my way into more fantastical books.

LOVE.

I’m already looking forward to the sequel! So funny and heartbreaking at the same time. The themes are relatable

especially CoHo featuring deaf characters which I’ve never read in the romance books I’ve gotten through so far

I liked the characters (even if they were written to be raunchy or rude. Another CoHo in the books (literally) and I’m excited to read more!

Aciman has reeled me in. After this second installment, my heart was pulled apart but then slowly put back together.

The drama and sorrow of “ Call Me By Your Name” follows me in this book. I love the way he wrote every character and the beauty of internal dialogue in this one. I had to whip out my highlighter and start annotating because I just adore the way he writes.

If you liked the first book then I would definitely give this one a chance! If you’re looking for a perfect ending with a bow on top then you clearly didn’t read CMBYN!
