    I fucking love when books end with like- a halfway HEA

    I HIGHLY recommend this as an audiobook because there are elements of this text that you just will not get if you just read it. Ugh this was tantalizing. I loved thinking that I knew what baby was thinking and finding out I was just plainly wrong and he had gotten in my mind too. I didn’t exactly understand how he got to Jen the way he did but I still liked the ending nonetheless.

    This was such an interesting concept and I feel it was handled absolutely so correct. A mindfuck that will dig its tendrils into your brain and not let you go.

    …I mean the ending didn’t go exactly where I thought it would so that’s a bonus

    I mean I did guess the plot twist within like the first 20% but the ending did salvage it a bit!! I love when I think I know exactly how something’s gonna play out and it goes different. While… I mean this was still very predictable. I did enjoy the ride though, I have a lot of the same emotions/thought processes as our fmc and felt immersed near the end. Wouldn’t read again but did like that I read it

    I had to read this for class and it was actually so good??? My quiz was like “the ending shows that even through hard times there’s still hope and love” but to me the ending felt very down and saddened. Tevye pissed me off by waiving his traditions for not one but two of his daughters them full out doing what he did to Chava. I loved the little romances rhey all had and I’m so buying this book physically

    “Mom’s lasagna looked highly suspect.” This doesn’t feel grammatically correct

    Is it just me or does this feel a bit juvenile? Like man I’m the same age as them and it feels like they’re both purposefully being obtuse. Maybe it’s the whole “fake dating” (not rlly) trope that I don’t like but they both just seem so… childish? Bimbo-y?
