I just realized Audre isn’t just named after Audre Lorde; she’s named after Zora Neale Hurston and Toni Morrison. Cool

I loved this so much I have to read again while I have it checked out.

“Maybe they’d always be disasters—but couldn’t they support each other and grow together? No one was perfect! And maybe that was what real, adult love was. Being fearless enough to hold each other close no matter how catastrophic the world became. Loving each other with enough ferocity to quell the fears of the past. Just fucking being there.”

Okay I love this so much 💗

SPOILER:

I took a dinner break right at CeCe’s party scene and even though I was 1000% with the premise before my break, I’m realizing this happened entirely too fast. Like you’ve known him really less than 2 weeks and now he’s texting your daughter? Let’s get it together.

What??? I didn’t even realize I was at the end. I haven’t read the epilogue yet but what happened to love? Yes it was *fast* but how can you let love go like that??? Either of them?

I wonder where things are going to go now that they resolved the past and are ready to move forward.

Oh so they’re crazy crazy in love 😳

This is going to devastate me. Their introduction to each other, the way their interactions just hold an enigmatic intensity is just absolutely delicious to read.

Bonnie Bennett mentioned!

The first paragraph made me laugh out loud so I think I like the writer’s style. I predict I’ll end up giving this 4 or 5 stars. ⭐️
