"Real love does change you. It moulds you. It burns your heart into a charred cinder that relights like a phoenix, stronger and more blazing than ever."
I knew this book didn't have a happy ending and I've been going through a breakup, so I didn't want a happy love story. I wanted a story that would make me cry and I got that plus some comfort.
This, albeit very YA novel was Holly Bourne's first and I love her as an author. Her writing is strongly feminist, and usually includes some mental health representation which I feel should be mentioned more in books.
I really enjoyed the idea behind this book. Soulmates are real, but not what you expect.
This is a love story to end the world.
