At first glance, this sounds like a light summer read, but it's so much more. Emma and Justin each were confronted with extremely challenging situations and some very difficult personal choices. Every time the author mentioned that Emma gets small, I felt that with all my soul. Maddy was an angel and Emma would've been a very different person if it wasn't for her support and understanding. Justin threw himself wholeheartedly into this relationship with Emma and I loved the way he paid attention to what Maddy was saying and to what Emma wasn't saying. This book was so emotional and left me wrung out, but also happy for Emma and Justin.
