I'm not usually a fan of the amnesia 'trope', but in this instance it worked much better than I was expecting. Things don't magically come back to Stevie. She gets to relearn what she forgot, maybe decide to take new directions as she is a new Stevie. She gets to fall back in love with Nora even though she doesn't remember the last two years together. And i really appreciated that.

I was also a little disappointed that Nora's POV was only seen once in a while, through a sort of letter or two she writes to Stevie, telling her how she feels... There is so much that needed to be unpacked in Nora, who only really had Stevie in her life, only for her to forget her... I would have liked her own POV, experiencing her life through her own eyes and not just being told what she feels every few chapters.
Their getting back together again may have been a little more emotional, I think, had we experienced both POVs.

Other than that though, I really enjoyed this book. There's a little bit of sad but a lot of love, of choosing your own way and making decisions that will set you on a brighter path.

Rep: both MCs read as lesbians although term isn't specifically used in the book (Stevie struggles to come to terms with that part of herself, let alone use the word "lesbian"), Stevie is also Korean-American.
