(I forgot to review it😭)

This book was truly a life changer🩷 One of the best I've ever read if not the best, it is so beautifully written and I was captivated from the start. I love how Eden grows and changes through the story, I love how her feelings are perfectly described, I just love everything about this book!!

The whole time, I was waiting for Eden to tell someone what Kevin did to her. It broke my heart how no one was really there for her when she needed it most and how no one knew what she ...more

tragic. this book was so good I loved it. I couldn't put it down. it was so sad though. I think what I hated the most, was yea she was being a britch, but her friends didn't even see that something was seriously wrong.

eden: you deserve the world honey. what she went through was horrible. absolutely horrible.

josh: i love you. literally. you also deserve the world. but like srsly tho he's so sweet, caring, and kind.

caelin: i actually didn't hate him. ...more

Eden shows how 1 night, how 5 minutes can change your life. She slowly lost everyone because of it. Mara was a good friend but I think she needed to understand that Eden had said several times that she didn’t like Steve. Cameron was unnecessarily mean. Caelin and Eden were never the same after that. He was always trying to get her to stop but didn’t understand why she was acting that way. Josh was probably the only time she was happy.
