let me start this review by saying - this book is hyped on tik tok in a way that i feel sets you up to think you are getting something else. this is not a love story! if you start this thinking you are getting a love story you will be bored and disappointed. i went into it at first thinking that but when it felt like it was moving slow someone told me to not be waiting for a love story and that’s when i was able to enjoy it and fall in love with the story. ultimately there is a lesson that is re ...more

this was more of a 4.5, not a 4. but i don’t have that option. i loved this book. but in the beginning, i really struggled getting into it. it drags on a lot in the beginning and doesn’t get to the point until about 1/4 of the way into the book, which is where i started falling in love with the story. i love the authors writing style. it’s extremely poetic. henry’s point of view is what kept me hooked, what made me want to finish the story.

Tbh I had no idea what this book was going to be about and before reading it it gave me The age of Adeline vibes so I was super excited because I love that movie.

After reading the book, unfortunately it just didn’t live up to my expectations of the book. Somewhere in the middle of the book I was bored and felt like it was the same thing over & over ...more
