Thanks to Netgalley and RB Media for the audioARC of this in exchange for my honest review.
A lot of TWs for this one: depression, suicide attempts, death of a loved one, doggie cancer, and I'm sure there were others.
4.5 stars! This gave me a lot of feels. All the characters were kind of trash babies, but I think that they interacted with each other in such flawed, but realistic ways. There's a very enemies to lovers progression to the main characters relationship, and I liked that. Especially as Harlow and Tommy grow to care for each other, and we see that their feelings don't "fix" his mental illness, which I thought was a really important point. Harlow and Ellis are very co-dependent and damaging to each other, but they can't help but pull each other back in. I know that I don't always love character driven books, but this one really sucked me in, maybe because the characters were so well written and so flawed, I just couldn't look away from their train wreck.
I liked all of the narrators, and thought the audiobook was well done!
