The pacing was completely off. It felt like ages before anything remotely interesting happened or anything was written in such a way that grabbed my attention. There were a few big reveals one of which I guessed in the beginning, the other not fully explained and one right at the very end that came out of nowhere. This final reveal changed the tone of the book, I felt as though I was reading an entirely new book. The dialogue, although sweet was often too cutesie/quirky in a way that made the author appear to be trying too hard. Also the book is riddled with platitudes. At first the characters appeared wise beyond their years, sweet and charming but after awhile I couldn't help but role my eyes. Eppie grew up being continually sick. Her parents fought all the time. Her dad turned to drinking and her mother was no longer around.Lincoln is the black sheep of his family. His parents are completely ruthless and their relationship to slim to none.Watching an accident take place and ending up in a vet's office is how Eppie meets Lincoln. From there, lives change; not only theirs but others close to them.What happens when that one person instantly calms you, making everything better without words? You'll have to read it to find out! You don't wanna miss out on this. This story was heartfelt, loving, messed up and capturing! Megan has done it again!
What do You think about Love Like Crazy (2000)?
I was totally not prepared for this book. So.Many.Feels.
