✨What it is about:

Two people connect via a synced digital calendar - one struggles with fitting in the world and feels like the odd woman out, while the other is struggling with grief after the tragic death of his brother.✨

💭My thoughts:

This story is a very slow burn that I think at the end, delivers. One thing I really liked was seeing the characters going through many serious real-life issues, which sometimes you don’t read many details about in stories (i.e. type 1 diabetes, autism). 

When you first start reading, nothing really happens for quite a while. Hang in there. The main characters don’t even meet until very far into the book, and it kind of makes you question where the story is going for a bit. However, once things finally start going, it’s so charming. Seeing both characters grow and form such a strong bond with each other through something so simple as a virtual calendar, was unique. This was slower than I would have liked, with a very heavy third act breakup twist, but still very good.
