I wanted to love this book, but I found myself wanting to put it down. At times it was slow moving and at others I found the story to be endearing. Overall I felt the book was great and romantic just not entirely a book for me. It was predictable and fluffy and ironically all tied up in a bow.

I went into this book not truly knowing what it was about and I’m so glad I read it! This is definitely a book that you won’t want to put down. Be sure to read the tigger warning as I read this 4 weeks postpartum and parts of it were very hard for me. Other than that, I loved it!

They say when you died, your entire life flashes before your eyes within seconds and this book was a great take on this idea. I couldn’t put the book down.

As someone who is a mental health professional, I found this book to be very engrossing as it took a closer look l at what the true meaning of life is. The ending is predictable; however, I still found the overall message and delivery to be well written. It helps me to reflect on my own life and all it’s many possibilities.

I was super excited to read this book because it’s gotten great reviews on social media; however, I will say it did not live up to the hype for me.
