Reading 7 Books in 7 Days (again!) 📚 Read It or Unhaul It Sprint 2 (part 1)

There were some highly specific moments with her dad that did remind me of experiences that I have had and that I felt I could connect to for a moment, but unfortunately, the rest of it just was not my cup of tea.

This book is very heavily about Silas and Bee to the point where even secondary aspects of these characters like the IVF or Silus's backstory of being in an accident while firefighting and getting burned and having panic attacks related to triggers around fire. and the grief plot line. All of those were extremely underdeveloped in favor of as much sexual tension as possible, as much flirting as possible, as many dirty jokes as possible.

I just think this was so impeccably done. I was so immersed in it all the way through, but also the ending had such a intense impact on me and I feel like I'm going to be thinking about this for a very long time.

Just like Rebecca on a reread gave me so much more to chew on and had so much more nuance and so much more to dive into and interpret and understand about the characters.

Overall, I would recommend and I enjoyed myself. However, I would not tell literally anyone to read it the way I did.
