First of all, I am absolutely in love with the character artwork. It's rich, colourful and has a really homey feel to it. Am I making sense? Probably not.. But it makes you think about family, love and the warmth of it. The second thing, I am absolutely and completely in love with the characters. Tom & Nova are relationship goals and the dynamic they have between them is just so heartwarming!! The way they compliment each other, support and love is just arrghhhh!! I was speaking the whole time I was reading about them 😂 And not to forget about the nanas! Best grandmothers ever. Especially when they are in their teasing mode.

The storyline is very simple, and it deals with a lot of issues many people go through. Self doubt, trust issues, family drama, first love and it was done in a very beautiful way. The artwork really gives you a new perspective to viewing these issues and how the support and love of your family can be vital to stay lively. I loved the fact that they included an epilogue. I admit that it's slightly cheesy at times, but what is there not to love?

I spent hours trying to think what could have been better with this book wrt my reading experience, and I came up with none. My only issue was the last chapter was not in colour ( Is that even an issue? What is wrong with you Madhu.. It's an arc obviously it will be rectified ) So basically I am coming up blank in that area.
.
Overall, this book was an absolute treat to read, and if you are a fan of reading in general, pick this book up. Trust me you guys, this will NOT disappoint you at all and will leave you feeling all warm and gooeyyy.
