As always, Taylor Jenkins Reid never ceases to amaze me. I'm in love with the way she writes and what she writes.

Her books aren't just some fictional stories, they are raw emotions for those who can lay their hearts bare to feel them. Her books are heartaches if you're willing to feel the deepest pain. Honestly, I can find no other way to describe her books, others may have different opinions though.

“How were you supposed to change- in ways both big and small- when your family was always there to remind you of exactly the person you apparently signed an ironclad contract to be?”

4.5 stars. tjr's storytelling does it for me once again. i was entranced since the first chapter and attached to each character - even the ones i hate. this was SUCH a good showcase of the complicated sibling dynamic trope as she encapsulated that complex, love-hate relationship siblings experience so well that it ma ...more

As for always, I LOVE Taylor’s writing.
She made it easy to understand the writing style and I absolutely loved it!
I remember mick since he appeared in the seven husbands of Evelyn Hugo and daisy jones and the six. Reading ab his backstory with June helped the story a lot but also broke my heart. I still hate him and even more now.
I loved the relationship kit, jay, hud and Nina had. They have always been there for each other.
This book was so hard to put down. I was hooked from the beginning. ...more
