β¨Hi! Meet the first book that made me cry in 2023β¨
πΉπππ βπΌπππΌπ
I usually hate when the conflict comes from someone just lying because obviously them getting caught is what the story centers around...however! this book is definitely the exception to that rule. I totally understand why Mika lied her ass off and the story centers around healing and forgiveness in the aftermath of her lies . Also, her character development π was amazing π
I adored this book. It was my first Emiko Jean read ever and I was not disappointed.
I love reading about disfuncional family dynamics, maybe it's because I can relate...maybe it's because the copious amounts of drama is quite entertaining...idk. whatever it was, this book was wonderful β€οΈ

βͺοΈIt's never too late to heal a relationship with a family member, as long as both parties are willing to forgive and improve.
βͺοΈYour past experiences and trauma do not define your worth or who you are as a person (say it louder for the people in the back!)
βͺοΈLosing a parent/loved one is extremely hard. It might take a while to overcome the grief, but it's important to remember that those who left us would want to see our smile again β€οΈ
