Started slow but then Abby did her thing and I absolutely loved it. The way she weaves these trilogies is so lovely!

Cozy and sweet, though more sad than I was expecting. Also
there’s nothing quite like listening to an audiobook and getting a future-altering text message at the exact moment the protagonist also has a climactic, life-altering meeting.
I probably won’t re-read but I would definitely recommend to others.

Did not finish book.
The number of times the phrase “dead baby” was used in the first hour of listening was too big of a turn-off.

4.5 stars. Very dense but a good read. Glad I did audio for my first time through…looking forward to buying a print copy and utilizing a highlighter.
