“Addie looks up at the ceiling. ‘Don’t forget,’ she says softly, the words half prayer, half plea. Henry’s arms tighten, a body surfacing from sleep. ‘Forget what?’ he murmurs, already sinking again. And Addie waits for his breath to steady before she whispers the word to the dark. ‘Me.’”

This is how you do character development! Absolutely incredible story. It was unique, captivating and reflective. The author also does a well executed open ending. 

I’m officially making this my favorite read of 2024!
