It’s the dead of summer and I have been able to pick up a lot of reads and had a great month. I read 21 books! I can’t even believe it myself. Trigger warnings: self-harm (MC cuts her wrist once), infidelity, infertility, miscarriage, depression, grief, cheating,.Romance: kiss, make-outs, detailed romance scenes.I am in awe of how great this book was and I am forever a CoHo fan. I couldn’t believe some actions taken by others. So many truths in this book.Ĭharacters made me want to hug them, yell at them, cry with them, and much more. Every couple has to remember why they love each other sometimes and not to give in at the same time. I seriously went to go kiss my husband after finishing this book because it made me consider a lot. The last couple of chapters with Graham’s letters DESTROYED ME. It was the perfect stop and starts as I got to see them fall in love, and find that love again. then timeline had me speeeeed reading because I had to know what happened next. “I love you more in this moment than any moment that has come before it.” There were so many sides to take in and brought in a lot of moments that made the book an easy five stars. I thought the way the book conveyed how deeply infertility can affect someone (and those around them) was done well. This is not a light conversation ever and while I personally haven’t had to deal with this, I know many families who have. I really felt this book because of it’s main issue, infertility. Hoover is able to take this intense situations and emotions and create a book that somehow still gives you hope at the end (even if you’re crying). I haven’t read all of her books, but currently I’m at 8 of them and this one might be my favorite yet.
