I think this book with to be absolutely perfect for somebody and while I really enjoyed it, it wasn't perfect for me.

I loved everything about the way grief was handled in this book. I personally have never dealt with a loss like the main character, but it also deals with the loss of a love. That is something so many people can relate to, and it just connected with me. The descriptions of Anna's emotions were just so raw and real. It really made me tear up at some points.

I also think disability was handled in here amazingly. I am not a disabled myself, but my dad is and while his disability is different from the character's he has a similar mentality. This book really showed how just because someone develops a disability doesn't mean their life is over or that they can't keep doing the things they love. It really hit me in a soft spot.

The themes in here were ones I needed to hear and that I have been experiencing myself lately, This book dove into how being alone is okay and while you may care for people and want them in your life, doesn't mean you need them. I'm not super into theme heavy books, but this one really connected with me.

The reasons I didn't love this book was because it was so short. I feel like the relationships and characters didn't have time to fully develop, so I didn't really feel attached to them. I like how the romance effected the main character, but I wasn't connected to it in a traditional sense. I feel like this would have been better for me if the romance was more developed, or it ended on a bit of a bitter-sweet note.

I would highly recommend this book because of the themes it covers, and I think a lot of people will connect with it like I did.

Thank you to St. Martin's Griffin, Trish Doller, and NetGalley for an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
