This book had a great opening since it captured my interest from the beginning. This is all about feeling remorse, afraid of opening up, a sense of loss or doubt in oneself especially in expressing on how you really feel on a certain someone.
The dynamic between the characters were always in sync with their feelings with each other and it shows how they truly knew one another despite them being dismissive and acting nonchalant most of the time whenever they were together. Full of longing, anger and frustration with their situation that continues to worsen due to them not communicating. To be honest, they were just afraid to communicate their feelings with each other that resulted in them not being together in the first place.
I liked their thoughts and opinions in certain things though I felt that there was something missing and that was them being seen together more. The two main characters expressed that they both knew each other well but there were certain moments that lacked that understanding between them along with the flame and tension about the conflict.
The side characters were barely introduced with their background and it felt forced with the interactions. I actually wanted to know more about the little details in their work, publishing and their interest and it lacked that. There were some circumstances that felt dull and repetitive with the past and present days that made it obviously known if it was present or past day if they hate or like each other.
Overall this was such a intriguing and entertaining read!
