I mostly really liked this, and I absolutely adored Daniel and Rex (and Daniel and Ginger's friendship <3). I usually love more of a slowburn, but I actually found it really refreshing that the relationship develops fairly early on but that there's then a lot of focus on both characters working through their respective traumas and coming to understand how to be together in a healthy way. There's a lot of super heavy stuff in here, but the overarching beautiful love story definitely balances it out.
The only thing I wasn't really a fan of is how Leo's character is dealt with. A lot of the parts involving him just really rubbed me up the wrong way, and it would've been so easy to just change a few small aspects and get rid of the uncomfortableness. I also don't think that I'll continue the series, as I'm not at all convinced that the next book's protagonist at all deserves a redemption arc...but I did overall really like this one as a standalone!

Elsker alt ved den her. Okay nej, ikke helt slutningen. Jeg er godt klar over, at den skal slutte et sted, men jeg kunne godt have hørt meget mere om de forskellige menneskers fremtid.
Elsker at hovedpersonen ikke er perfekt, elsker at han år efter sin mistrivsel stadig bærer indre ar og utryghed. Elsker at smerte ikke bare er overstået fordi det ville gøre det hele bedre. Elsker, at alle er så menneskelige og uperfekte, men prøver deres bedste. Elsker de små kommentarer og indre monologer Daniel har, og elsker at der alligevel er så meget håb og kærlighed.
Okay - har lige erfaret at der er flere i serien 🤦🏼♀️ så giver slutningen mere mening 😂
