I was constantly searching for the message behind the story and there were so many! These were a few that came up for me:
-Dating volatility, modern society welcoming this “thank you next” mentality
-The mystery of the unknown can be a beautiful part of life to be welcomed
-We never know how things are going to go so just jump in, and wish the for the best
-How do you know what aspects of a partner to accept or reject? What are your bottom lines in love?
-Your whole life can change if you miss that train, visit a new coffee shop, change your major. Scary or wonderful?
-You have a million potential soulmates, don’t lose hope!
-“Standing still” can be nice
I love the concept but after a while got bored of all the new descriptions, when I knew it would change again soon!

For fans of Emily Henry and Penelope Douglas, this book will resonate with its heartfelt humor and the protagonistâs journey to self-discovery. Itâs a novel that celebrates the messiness of life and love, reminding us that sometimes, the best choice is to simply enjoy the ride.
