Before I Let Go

My current read is Before I Let Go by Kennedy Ryan and I stayed up wayyyyy too late reading last night! This story is amazing and so heartbreaking at the same time. I love Yasmen and Josiah, and am looking forward to seeing how the last half of the book progresses. #kennedyryan #romancebooks #currentlyreading #bookish #reading

2/5 Edited to

... Read moreReading Before I Let Go has been a profound experience for me, especially in how it portrays the complexities of relationships and healing. The story delves into Yasmen and Josiah's journey as they navigate the painful end of their marriage while still co-parenting and managing a business together. What struck me the most is how Kennedy Ryan writes with such raw emotion and authenticity — the characters' struggles feel incredibly real. Yasmen’s growth throughout the book, as she begins to find joy and establish a new rhythm in life after her marriage falls apart, resonated deeply. The way they are drawn back to each other despite everything that happened highlights the nuanced nature of love and forgiveness. It’s not just a typical romance; it explores the tough realities of dealing with loss, betrayal, and the hope for second chances. If you’re into romance that’s emotionally charged and offers a honest look at what it means to rebuild after heartbreak, this book is a must-read. Kennedy Ryan's writing is addictively delicious, making it hard to put the book down, just like I stayed up way too late getting lost in Yasmen and Josiah’s story. It’s definitely one of those novels that stays with you long after you’ve finished reading, reminding us how love can be both a source of pain and healing.

Things I wish I knew before college!
1: Make friends as soon as you get there. Being a freshman makes it super easy to talk to new people because you get to say “hey! I’m new here and I’m trying to meet new people and make new friends. Wanna hang out sometime?” 2: Learn to say no. There are going to be nights that going out seems s
