Thank you so much to The Bookclub Cookbook and Grand Central Publishing for the gifted copy.

I love how the story starts with two strangers who are both flawed. They’re both dealing with real life relatable heavy problems. Trigger warning on the suicide content if anyone wants to read it and have to take it easy. I enjoyed how the characters form a relationship in such a short period of time but it has so much impact on both sides. They unexpectedly help each other out to face the issues in their lives and find closure. I honestly thought I wouldn't like this book but when I started reading it, I couldn't stop. I just had to read another chapter every time I finished one. This is a story about mental health, romance, forgiveness, and starting over.
