I am Adelaide. Adelaide is me. This book feels like it was written specifically for someone like me, who is always giving so much of themselves to earn other people's love. If you love character driven books that are emotional but hopeful overall, you will probably enjoy this!

If you've ever dated a person who you gave and gave to, and they gave back maybe 50% but gave just enough to keep you hoping that maybe you could love them in to loving you back.........you will probably love (and also kind of hate haha) this book!

For me this really hovers around a 3.5. I did enjoy it, and it's very moreish in terms of reading experience but there were definitely things that I had issues with - especially with more space from the book. 

I did really like that there were twists and turns, but they weren't SO twisty and turny that my brain had to work crazy hard. It was at a nice 'in-between' place between predictable and balls to the wall insane. 

I felt like the ending was rushed, and somehow even though the book was a decent enough length, I feel like I didn’t really get to know the characters as well as I wanted to. I think a lot of time was spent on the island aspect and I wanted maybe a little more with the characters. Sometimes I felt like the description of the island was repetitive.
