I have conflicting feelings about this book. The concept was really cool but I found myself wishing for more thrilling pacing and developments. The pacing just felt a little all over the place for me. I don't want to spoil anything so I won't say much else other than the ending was interesting and something I appreciate in the thriller genre. 
This book did spark really interesting conversation though so I think if I had gone I'm with different expectations I would have enjoyed the book more.

Absolute perfection. I loved every single character. They immediately became endearing and drew you into the story.  I absolutely loved how everyone's relationships were connected. This story was an amazing take on contemporary romance. This book tackled a reality of love, love lost, in a breathtaking and heartbreaking way. And yes, there were heartbreaking moments but plenty of heartwarming moments as well. This book showed a wonderful scope of human kindness. I was completely drawn in to this world. I felt Kate's happiness and pain, and grieved with her, cried with her, laughed with her. 
The ending was beautiful - H
Hopeful. And it didn't diminish Kate's grief or her movements forward from her grief. 
Perfection

This was really thought provoking. And it was short so I'd was given in a bite size bit that was easy to swallow. 
fast-paced

Literally just Spice
No complaints

Tessa does it again. Every book of hers is just a good time. omg - I laughed, I screamed, I had anxiety. So well done and I found myself having to physically stop the book at the Christmas party to laught because it was simultaneously the sweetest and funniest thing ever. And man, there were a few extremly satisfying scenes. I love a good grumpy/sunshine story and it's always refreshing when the girl is grumpy. And I mean, Aiden, with his little bow ties- so sweet. This novella was just a good time all around.
