Publisher's summary

An achingly authentic and raw portrait of love, regret, and the life-altering impact of the relationships we hold closest to us, this YA best seller is perfect for fans of Kasie West, All the Bright Places, and Dear Evan Hansen.

If he had been with me, everything would have been different....

Autumn and Finn used to be inseparable. But then something changed. Or they changed. Now, they do their best to ignore each other.

Autumn has her boyfriend, Jamie, and her close-knit group of friends. And Finn has become that boy at school, the one everyone wants to be around.

That still doesn't stop the way Autumn feels every time she and Finn cross paths, and the growing, nagging thought that maybe things could have been different. Maybe they should be together.

But come August, things will change forever. And as time passes, Autumn will be forced to confront how else life might have been different if they had never parted ways....

Sad

The book had a slow climax and a fast resolution. Broke my heart. Wish they could’ve been together forever.

Not as good as I thought it’d be

So much teenage angst in this book and a little drawn out for me. Was a bit underwhelming.

heartbreaking

absolutely gorgeous story - I could've done without the "I said", "He said", "I said".... after almost every conversational encounter, but overall - a beautiful story!

Overall this book was…

Overall this book was good. The ending is what makes it a good read to me. But I feel as though it lacked the same intensity throughout the book that was displayed at the end of the book, earning its 4 stars

I’m 40 and I don’t care

For someone who never had an adolescence, I read a lot of YA and this book did not disappoint me in any way. The ending is sad, but also deeply realistic. Your emotions will be all over the place in 2 minutes but the ride to me, was worth it. It does leave it hanging though…
