Was going to give it only two stars but

love that they broke up as the ending😂 even tho I know they get back together🙄 Not cool for the author to not answer all questions or fill-in character/plot holes but to purposely drag it out into another book🙄🙄

3.0

Initial thoughts: This is the only book I’ve ever listened to in 3x speed because it’s the only book I was fine with only halfway comprehending. It was in Libby’s “Available Now” section, so I borrowed it. And no, I am not sure why I did it.

Reflection: But as it turns out, I feel that I have gained something by reading this series. I actually ended up listening to the audiobooks twice. The relationship is undoubtedly complicated, and so are many real ones, so it was interesting to analyze its evolution.

I ended up adding a half-star to my previous 2.5 after my second read.
