it was amazing
bookshelves: contemporary, women-s-fiction, y-a, romance

I went into this novel not knowing much about it except having read the basic description of the book, and I recommend doing the same...knowing little as possible!!! I really loved it and couldn't put it down. It is very character driven and the dialogue is sharp.

Thirty-four year old Morgan begins to see her life as predictable and struggles with her identity as a housewife. Her teenage daughter, Clara, feels like she is treated with too many rules but respects her parents wishes. That is, until an unexpected event occurs leaving their family in shock. How can they be honest with each other when the trust has already been broken? Can they find redemption and heal their relationship?

Chapters alternate between the mother, Morgan, and her her daughter, Clara. It starts off at Morgans high school graduation party and reveals Morgan's realization that she is pregnant. After this first chapter, everything takes place during Morgan's life as 34 year-old -mother and Clara's life as a 16 year-old on the brink of 17 years old.

Topics include- underage drinking, marijuana usage, teen pregnancy, teen sex

**I think this is my new favorite Colleen Hoover novel.**

Paige Norma * Traveling Sister and proud Grandma!!! wrote: "Wonderful review, Paige! I think I need to read this one! 💕"

I couldn't put it down Norma! I had to know what happened!! It's marked as teen & YA....which I would agree with...Idk if that's your thing, but if it is then go for it!

Suzy, she is a very talented writer!! She avoids blahblahblahs...meaning excessive descriptions. This is a really great book, and I recommend it if you ever decide to jump on the Colleen Hoover wagon 🤗

Awesome constantine! I hope you love it :)


Paige Elyse (semi hiatus) wrote: "Ok.... i’ll read your review closer after I take a turn at this one. Thanks Paige!! 💕"

Hi Elyse! I hope you have been well during this holidays!
It is a Teen & YA book, Idk if you enjoy those or not so just throwing that out there! It has 2 POVs and one of them is from the teen daughter...some readers didn't enjoy it because it was too "young" for them. I still liked it though and was totally invested.
