Even though typically I am not that much of an romance reader, this book killed me!


The whole book I was just like 'Jamie and Autumn are kind of toxic and kind of not ...' and was Routing for Finny and Autumn!
Well, I got it - for like five pages :/
And then - my downfall - the ending. I mean, I guessed from the very beginning that he was going to die but - after they discovered their true feelings for each other - no. Just no.
And then the sui**de attempt And the sudden pregnancy - I am lost And incredibly sad about everything.
And I cried. A lot. 😭


Please. Read it.
