I really struggled to get through this one, I should have DNF’d because it never got better.

I thought there was something wrong with my copy at first because you would jump forward mid paragraph, but it’s just the odd writing style. Felt sloppy and a little like a child’s way of telling a story.

I did not like the characters. Let’s be clear, it is never stated that Art is autistic or Neurodiverse in the book, and there is a reason for that. Art isn’t written well so if they had labelled him I’m sure it would have been pretty offensive to ND individuals. He made me so uncomfortable, his relationship with Mimi is odd and borderline abusive, but it’s meant to be that they are “bonded” or a bit quirky.

I also didn’t like Mimi, she was a weak character and her decisions were frustrating. 

I don’t like romance books and didn’t go into this thinking I was reading a rom-com, because it isn’t. It’s a book about friendships, sibling relationships, trauma etc. 

It just isn’t written very well.
