It began a bit like the film The Lucky One. But this is hitting different. So much more intense. I’m not sure I’m ready for what’s to come.

Hooked. Heartbreaking already. Ready to revel in the feels.

Lots and lots of words I do not know. Kindle coming in clutch with the dictionary!!!
First thoughts…not sure this is for me, but am determined to give it a good go given its good reviews and the recommendations. Here’s hoping it grows on me!

I am ooo’ing and eee’ing and ahhh’ing OUT LOUD to myself reading this and my jaw has dropped multiple times times. I don’t want to put it down!!!!!!

!!!!!!

Urm. Suspense is high already. And Nina’s character is a big ? Who is sheeeee

Tomorrow I will finish it!

It’s getting to the point where I don’t wanna put it down which doesn’t help me in going to bed at a reasonable hour.

REALLY enjoying this!

A lot of recounting the book I have juuust finished?!?

Still really enjoying!

Enjoying it so far! More fantasy than normal for me but it isn’t changing my intrigue

My evening read since I moved to Belfast. Lots of perspectives. Lots of post-it note quotes I wish I have been writing down. A book I’m sure I’ll keep coming back to after finishing it in full.

I can’t hack the suspense. I flicked ahead and spoilt it for myself

I still don’t know who done it !!!!!

I can’t stand thriller movies but for some reason I can stand a thriller book. I am feeling the suspense!!!

Going for round 2 reading this & I’m obsessed & want to rewatch the series now. Although the pair do just frustraaaate me!!!!!

I’m hooked but like, I’m confused!

“No one is all good or all bad. I know this, of course. I had to learn it at a young age. But sometimes it's easy to forget just how true it is. That it applies to everyone.”

"I think being yourself—your true, entire self—is always
going to feel like you're swimming upstream."
"Yeah," she said. "But if the last few years [NO SPOILERS] have been any indication, I think it also feels like taking your bra off at the end of the day." Lovelovelove this (context of the book makes it DEEP though!!!)

“…you didn't come here and tell me how much you miss me. Or how hard it has been to live without me. You said you didn't want to give up. And look, I don't want to give up, either. I don't want to fail at this. But that's not actually a great reason to stay together. We should have reasons why we don't want to give up. It shouldn't just be that we don't want to give up.” OOOOOOF (bit relatable but ok)

Intimacy is impossible without trust p66

When you’re older. You have to find a job that makes your heart feel big instead of one that makes it feel small p89

Loving it!!! And loving a couple quotes..

He thought my old l-man laugh was the most genuine, because no one in their right mind would want to sound like that p55

It won't be fun, necessarily. But it will be good. It's like going to a party when you've had a bad day. You don't want to go, but you know you should. You know that even if you don't enjoy it, it will do you good to get out of the house p56

“When you’re given an opportunity to change your life, be ready to do whatever it takes to make it happen. The world doesn’t give things, you take things. If you learn one thing from me, it should probably be that.”

GREAT first three chapters of the book, I’m so excited. Must sleep but will be sure to make a good dent in it tomorrow!!!
