Many thanks to NetGalley, St Martin's Press and Macmillan Audio for gifting me both a digital and audio ARC of this wonderful debut novel by Genevieve Wheeler and wonderfully narrated by Caitlin Kelly - 5 stars!
Adelaide is an American living and working in London. When she meets Rory at a bar, she tells him he looks like a Disney Prince. When she runs into him again by chance, she quickly falls in love. But does Rory feel the same way?
I really loved this book - it's an honest look at grief, mental illness, sacrificing and losing yourself for another, the power of friends. Adelaide's character felt very real to me. She's young, in a new place, thinks that if she just tries a bit harder, Rory will love her the way she wants to be loved. I also really liked how the author gave glimpses into the future in her writing style. While there are definitely triggers here, this is an important book but also very readable and enjoyable. I can't wait to read more from this author!
