It took me a while to write this review because I was left with mixed feelings after finishing the book.
The book follows the story of Fallon and Ben, who agreed to meet every year on November 9 for 5 years.
It is a book that grabs your attention from the beginning and, like other CoHo's books, it is hard to put down.
However, I cannot give this book a positive rating because I feel I would be supporting the romanticization of toxic relationships, based on lies and where consent is not essential.
Everyone can write about what they want and opinions are very subjective, but in a society where consent is often disregarded I see novels and writing in general playing a key role in educating what are expected behaviors in healthy relationships.

Consent is always necessary. The word no is not ambiguous.
