I really enjoyed this book and I’m excited to read more Carissa Broadbent. I’m glad I read this book first before her super popular current series because I anticipate her writing has gotten much better. That being said, there were a lot of really profound and masterful storytelling moments in this novel. Definitely for fans of SJM and TOG specifically. 
Lost 3/4 of a star because I felt the book could have been a little bit shorter. The last quarter of the book went a little long.
