This book right here is aiming to be a very angsty and emotional read. It's a second chance romance about two people re-uniting many years later. I am not entirely sure that this was a book for me, there were a number of reasons I wasn't entirely feeling it. 
 While the writing is good, the book felt a bit drawn out and by 70% I pretty much lost interest. Honestly? It was one tragedy after another and I got depressed. And kind of bored. It might have been that killer migraine or... or... vernal equinox but I just wasn't invested in this read. 
 I guess I was looking for some balance. I wanted more happy moments in the midst of all despair. I wanted more explanations of important things rather than drawn out descriptions of scenes I could have gone without. In fact, without them I did go. It's called skimming. Overall, this book was just an "okay" for me.
