** spoiler alert ** 4.5 stars

i loved and hated this book so fucking much. i literally read it in a singular day and became obsessed with sam and percy. i LOVE a slow burn friends to lovers and this just did what it had to do!!! the banter was really good and i thoroughly enjoyed all the relationships. literally the only problem i had with this book was the MAIN CHARACTER. i deeply resent her for what she did.

i hated that she just treated her friends like shit. 12 years of therapy and you still haven’t learned??? like hello… and i feel like delilah would’ve reached out within 12 years too. she wouldn’t have just sat by for allllll that time when they were best friends. i just think that 12 years was a bit too long. maybe like 7? idk i feel like that difference was a lot for besties like dat

i just really really did not like how charlie and percy fucked at the end. my man took her first kiss and first time. like that just pisses me off so bad. and then sam ends up blaming himself for it which is like yea u were shitty at that point but she should not have FUCKED UR BROTHER?? they both made really big mistakes but personally i would not recover if that happened to me.

BUT. it all makes sense because sam was sick of wasting time… sooooo

but then i’m like he rlly waited 12 fucking years to come to that realization. i would’ve rather died than miss some girl for 12 years.

this book was heartbreaking and amazing and awful and funny and annoying. i just will be thinking about these characters for a long time. i wish it was fully wrapped up.. like maybe 50 more pages of them together at the end butt… i loved the rest so much and it all did come together. SHITTT i need a sam in my life.
