I knew after reading only ten pages of Sick Kids in Love that I’d love it, and I was right. Moskowitz wrote such a compelling, realistic story, and I sped through it. I loved Isabel’s friends and Sasha’s family, and I loved Isabel and Sasha most of all. They were well-written, and their friends-to-lovers arc might be one of my all-time favorites. Nearly every interaction between them was adorable or amusing or both. I know I’ll be thinking about this book for a long time, and I can definitely see myself rereading it either as a pick-me-up or just because I miss Sasha.
