A book that crushed me🌧️😭🥺💔

⭐️Overall rating: 5/5:⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The first book destroyed me and this book re-destroyed me. I hate that we are reminded of the tragedy this book endures, even though it’s a main part of the story. This is like Romeo and Juliet, star crossed lovers destined to end in tragedy. It took me a week to get through this book because every page was getting tear drops on them and my little heart can only take so much sorrow. This book is so beautiful and I really am not going to share much more because it will give away the story. The only thing I will say is I wish jack and autumn got together in some way. Like I wish he would’ve developed feelings for her so they can reminisce on memories together. There are a ton of trigger warnings in this book so I would research them before diving head first. Definitely a book that will put you in a reading slump due to the intense emotions but one I will never forget.
