If Tomorrow Doesn't Come by Jen St. Jude
4.0

Received a copy from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review!
The multilayers of this story beautifully describe what it's like to live with depression in a world that's constantly turning and forgetting about us. Now that the world will indeed, actually stop, so much is left unspoken between our characters.

Now that there's a chance healing may never come, they've decided it's time to confront what's kept them apart. Our main character feels like everyone is better off without her, that they don't need her. You see throughout just how deep that thought runs through her. But as we progress she's forcibly shown just how much the people around her need her presence.

Especially with the end of days steadily approaching. It's a sweet but dark story that shows the reader in minutes our world could change. It's so relatable that it's a bit jarring at times, seeing thoughts and feelings you've only ever kept to yourself. It's beautifully written and is definitely a must-read.
