This was a weird one for sure. Definitely not enjoying this mini series as much as the 'Forward' collection.

Wtaf did I just read...seriously. 100% my least favourite of SJM's series already, CC2 just...wtf.

• 200 pages at least could have been shaved off, seriously 😐
• the 'sex' scenes were unsexy and cringe af, I think I went ew on more than one occasion
• where the fuck was Aidas
• the best bit about this book was the final chapter, honestly

Again, Rachel

Absolutely loved being back in the boosom of the Walsh family. Rachel was always my favourite of the sisters and it was an absolute delight to come back to her 20yrs after Rachel's Holiday.

I love the plot, the setting and the complexity of Rachel's life in the now. The book was devastating, beautiful and made me cackle with laughter and bawl.

Really fun opener to what is sure to be yet another fantastic series from Teagan Hunter.

Liked both Harper and Collin - the meet cute, the cameos from Hunter's Texting series 👏 just all around a fun read, excited for Rhodes and Ryan's story next!
