"In my teens and 20's I'd convinced myself that people who loved eache other were drawn together like magnets, no matter what. But when distances like these emerge in our relationshps, romantic or otherwise, we can't wait for a mystical gravitational force to close the gap. Istead, we have to create that force with honesty and empathy and forgiveness."

"It shouldn't had surprised me really, because it was one of the first leasons I learned about love: it is not instant like a spark, it is something that grows if tended to, like a flame stoked into a fire."

"I hadn't really needed an answer, I just wanted to say our worst fear out loud to take away it's power. But his reply it's soothing, because althought it is not that simple, in many ways it is..."

All of us at some point have to learn how to get our hearts broken

Minha teoria:
Que a Amy tem múltiplas personalidades

WHAT???? AND ALL OF THEM????

My freedom in exchange for naps with my children. It was a trade I was willing to make. There is nothing I love more, nothing more important to me in this earth than my children. I'd lay out my life for them. So I thought: why not my freedom?

"I'm Britney Spears now" he said.
OH WOW I got chills, this is literally a horror story

WHAT????

Stumbled across this one on Audible plus and saw ‘ Rebecca Yarros’ on the cover. Say less.

I realized two little too late why the name Kennedy Ryan is familiar… This is Colleen Hoover 2.0 and I’m trapped in this nightmare😣

They agreed to be just friends a couple pages ago… HOW DID WE GET HERE?🫣

“Promising myself that I’d tell him to sort his shit out, or clean out the trash, or do his own fucking dishes in the morning.
God, I’m so glad I don’t have to come home to a sink stacked full of dirty dishes anymore.”

MANCHILLLLLDDDDD 🤠🤠🤠

"It's going to be cold as shit," he called over the sound of the waterfall as we got closer.
"Good thing you promised to keep me warm,"
How is it possible that I enjoy the bonus chapter, which is not even about the main couple in this piece, more than the whole book altogether ?

‘Young love.
It was more than that, but when you fall in love that young, a lot of people spend a lot of time trying to convince you that it isn't real, and there's no way it will last.

1/3 of the book and they are not even talking yet… this is going to be hard to get through

‘"What's the towel for?" she asked after a second
"In case you wanted to get your hair wet," I said. Cam tilted her head in question. "Your hair...you don't like it when it's straight." I shrugged. "I know you'll say it'll be frizzy or whatever, but the extra water and towel are there
—if you want them."’
Oh Dusty… the man you are 🥹

It’s a bittersweet feeling reaching the end of the series that felt like spending summer in a distant family’s house. I have no expectations for this book so I hope it’s surprises me in the best way.

I love Lyla Sage, but something’s off… why does she keep jumping scenes in between chapters? Like… I want to know what happened after he kissed her 🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃

‘But as I was walking out, I heard Teddy say, "So
when's the last time you were arrested?"
"Never?" Riley said.
"Well, tomorrow you're going to say yesterday,"
Teddy said. "Lucky you're mom's a lawyer."
Jesus Christ, what had I done?’

I JUST LAUGHED SO LOUD I THINK THE WHOLE BUILDING HEARD IT 😂😂😂

‘ life had begun to feel bittersweet, and I was getting all the bitter and everyone else was getting all the sweet. I told myself not to cry. I didn’t like crying. I didn’t like seeing the world through watery and swollen eyes.’
Oh Teddy, I feel you 🥺

Can’t wait for these enemies to become loversssssssssss 💖💕💓💗💞💝🩷

What a cursed day omfg

Muito difícil pra uma brasileira ler ele chamando ela carinhosamente de Pika 🫢

This has to take a 180° turn to make it look cute falling in love with your dead boyfriend’s brother

I have 182 books on my TBR but am I reading them? Nope.
Am I picking up the first book that appeared on my Audible account? Absolutely.

Totally relatable, raise your hand if you’ll never fell in love with a basic mediocre white guy just cause he was right there all the time.
The most unrealistic thing about this book is a heterosexual man opinionated about his own wedding….
