How to End a Love Story by Yulin Kuang
4.0

ALC gifted by Libro.fm

I like the dual POV and the grief/guilt discussions. The supporting characters are also great additions to the story. I could almost imagine each scene in my head, which speaks to the author’s skills in writing vivid scenes.

I enjoyed this but didn’t love it as much as I was hoping—I think mostly because of the three elements don’t blend that well for me

(1) Helen’s emotional immaturity as a 30yo is a bit jarring (she’s emotionally stuck in high school and references Grant as the homecoming king so often it was a bit cringe for me
