It was sad at the same time as realistic and amazing and honest - I don’t know how to explain it. I think the lesson about depression and how that might show up, stands out the most to me. I wouldn’t say it was my FAVORITE CoHo book so far, but definitely worth reading if you enjoy her writing. ...more

To be fair, I definitely didn’t expect the plot twist towards the end. So I’d say it was not predictable!

I disagree though - I think it was captivating, well-written, emotional, and healing all in one. Was it the best book I’ve ever read? No, but that’s okay. Worth the read, I’d say. Coho sharing her own experience and why she wrote the book at the end was incredibly eye opening and vulnerable. I’m excited to read the next book and also see the movie! ...more
