I went into reading this book completely blind, not having read any reviews. I think it's much better that way!

TW: Suicide, death, cancer, arson.

I have mixed feelings on this book to be honest. On the one hand, I LOVED it. On the other, after reading reviews posted by others, I can see why some people really didn't like it. I guess it all depends on how you read into Ben and Fallon's relationship. I don't want to get into details because I hate putting spoilers in my reviews. This book definitely tugged on my heart strings though.

I haven't disliked anything I've read by CoHo, and this is no different!

Slow start but epic finish. I am a sucker for a good cheesy romance novel and this was that. I was gasping left and right towards the end of the book. I would recommend his book to someone who is new to reading.

This is the first colleen hoover book I have ever read. After reading this book, I added almost every single book of hers to my TBR and the ones I've read are definitely worth reading.

The plotline is quite different from the usual romance novels and I liked that. The way characters are described is really good. This book is a mixture of hope, trust, emotions, forgiveness and imperfections of life. It makes one feel confident about their body. I liked how Ben made Fallon confident about her body and encouraged her.

I recommend it to everyone.

This book is quite unrealistic in my opinion, but still so good. It will having you awed, angry, sad, and a whole mix of other emotions. It also is a quick read.
