Review: Emotional damage - hurts so good - I would rate this book 10 ๐ if I could, the writing was beautiful and story, chef's kiss, however I really wanted more from the ending. The entire book was a huge beautiful build up and then last few chapters felt rushed and anticlimactic. I wanted more Review: as a picky reader this satisfied me - love this book, it's now one of my favourites. it reminded me so much of colleen hoover's writing style. also this made me shed a few tears๐ญ I've never ever read a book that made me cry.

Emotional read
This book is amazing! I loved every minute of it! Macy and Elliot are childhood best friends who became lovers until one night changed it all. Both at different stages in their lives when they run into each other and are reminded of the love, hurt and everything that happened that night. This is a story of friendship, love and second chances. This is an emotional read, I cried and was hooked from the very beginning; thanks to the well written alternating time lines between then and now. Elliot is such a fresh character and so loving; Macy is so broken and strong at the same time. I love them! By far this is my best Christina Lauren read!

One of my favs
This was a really emotional book for me but I loved it from the beginning to the end. The writing was beautiful and it was the "childhood best friends trope" which is my fav trope after enemies to lovers

I loved this book with everything in me!
How the hell did it take me this long to read this?? ๐ฅน This book was just ๐๐ผ ๐๐๐ฒ๐ฒ๐ ๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ ๐ฏ๐ฒ๐ฎ๐๐๐ถ๐ณ๐๐น! Elliot and Macyโs love was crystal clear through it all and you could feel the passion in every single word! This felt like a hug in the best way possible! I loved the dual timeline and that it was just the simplest kind of love, with no grand gestures or anything. It felt so real and the characters were so normal and relatable, which made it easy to connect to it! From the moments they met as teenagers, I was instantly in love with them, and watching them grow up and get to know one another was heartwarming. Their time among the books and the way they interacted with each other was just precious. This is a slow read, but in my opinion is definitely worth it. I cried more than I expected but I just really connected to the story and I honestly couldnโt have asked for anything more!
