quite the emotional read. coming of age amidst the chaos of 9/11, contemplations of beauty and scars, and grappling with life after loss... there‘s a lot to feel along with these characters—but it‘s not without hope, love, and community. i‘m glad i read it.

Man, I don‘t even care. I have fun reading these. A friend from work felt alone in her fandom, so I told her I would read these, even though it‘s not my genre. I enjoy the world these characters live in and I‘m intrigued enough about where this story is going to keep reading. They‘re just a bit of fun and what‘s to hate about that?

For me this was not her best writing. I love Colleen Hoover books but this was very slow. I give it 3 1/2 stars.

4⭐
This features a slow-burn romance with satisfying buildup and occasional steamy moments, all set against an apocalyptic fantasy backdrop. I sensed where the story was headed and was relieved to be right—it could have crashed and burned so easily.
🎙️It feels like this was a waste as a GraphicAudio production since it essentially only has two characters for the majority of the story. But I still enjoyed it nonetheless.

I had a pretty unenthusiastic month of reads for September. I read a total of three books, but I‘m hoping to do so much better this month. I got a whole slew of horror and horror romance in line for the month so I‘m kind of excited. But of course I have a few fantasy and comedy included as well. I also have a list of books that I‘m behind in and plan to make my primary read in November, so we‘ll see how that goes. #BookSpinBingo
