Took me less than a day to read!
I can’t say enough about this makes me think too much about my Aunt, my cousin Kathy Alegre who was diagnosed with lung cancer 8 months ago. I feel too sad to write a review, but I will.
About the writing and style, well no comparisons there this book makes up for at least a dozen of so-so books I have read. The sadness that was Will and Lake is just too real. Makes you think a lot and pay attention. Testing your boundaries because that is what they are there for. WOW so true.
As for the first reveal I was, like I am sure many were totally shocked. I was pissed off with that and I think back to Will’s first conversation and Lake’s first SLAM. He told her lets not go there when she asked about family and things, instead that did “would you rather” Had he told her that night it would have save a very broken girl a lot of shock and heart ache.
Overall I LOVE Eddie and makes me think of my forever bestie and how Eddie was Eddie and Andi is and will always be my Eddie. OK so I am on a weekend get away and I am crying. Not good but just because I love Andi so much and I guess I just thought of her and when her Dad passed and how I did a lot but maybe I needed to do more. Nothing can make up for that. Mine is here and called me today, like he does every Sunday. My bestie Kelly lost hers and it has been a year. Not too many days go by that I dont imagine Pop Pop or think about dumb things we did and feeling like we were his only girls and who always felt so special! I think Walter Senior is up in heaven smiling at me knowing he did adopt me too. Gosh I am a babbling fool.
The ending I guess sadness was there but how can it be? Didnt we all know what would happen? expect it? yes but the reality is when it happens we all grieve the same 5 stages.
Such a “go out and read it today” read!
