I had a terrible time reading this book. EVERY SINGLE CHAPTER switches to a different point in Amanda's life, in no specific order. We jump around from childhood to adulthood at different points. The first five chapters take place in 2019, 1998, 2015, 2002 and then back to 2019. I have never been so frustrated reading a romance novel. The author attempts to misdirect us multiple times about who the main character ends up with even though it was pretty clear very early on to me. If you are a fan of nonlinear stories then you may enjoy this, but the amount of skipping around felt unneeded and stopped me from being able to invest in any of the characters or events happening, because in 5 pages, we will be talking to completely new people in a new year. 

I didn't DNF because I felt like the queer rep was well done and it managed to discuss coming out in as well-explored as you can in a single chapter before we switch to a new year again, but otherwise, I did not enjoy this one.
