Love all the highs and lows
This has to be one of the great netflix series at the moment that will hopefully be loved by all for a long time.
I live the fact that it is a close up look into grief, something that can sometimes be overlooked or over dramatised in modern stories.
Each episode is a whirlwind of emotions. The highs and low juxtaposition one another so well, making each one seem better/worse than it would if they weren't coupled.
Some excellent characters that work really well together and create the highs/loss throughout.
Joe Wilkinson is something else, absolute dynamite of a man.

》A lovely story set in the 1940's. It is a unique story in that it focuses on the thoughts, actions and emotions of the people left state side. I thought it was an encouraging and thought provoking book, and it really didnt gloss over different aspects of being newly in love which I appreciated as it made the book more realistic than some :) . I truly enjoied reading this book even though at first I wasn't sure that i'd like it. I do recommend reading it, as it has a ver believable perspective. I volunteered to read this book in return for my honest feed back, the opinions expressed within are my own.

I love everything Adam Silvera comes up with and every time it's soul destroying, He so carefully creates his characters and you feel their emotions and heartache and damn does he know how to make you feel. As soon as I read the summary I knew that this was the book for me, it had everything I love in fiction and it didn't disappoint. It's raw and honest from the first age to the last page and even though you find out about the history and present simultaneously you're still constantly uncovering things you didn't expect. He also handles the topic of OCD very well, it's not romanticized and it's portrayed as very very real.
Leanne Crabtree (480 KP) rated Take (Temptation, #2) in Books
Jan 6, 2021
I was a little wary of reading this since I liked the first but didn't love it.
But this. This I loved. The emotions between Logan and Tate were explosive. The wanting of both of them to make it into more than just sex, to make it into a full relationship, to go public. It melted me and my soft, hopeless-romantic heart.
I cried, I wanted to throw my Kindle, I smiled, I 'aah'ed.
It was a bit of a rollercoaster what with religious parents and past, painful relationships but they came through it all in the end stronger than ever.
What a way to end! I need the third book now!

Liked it but didn't love it
I liked this but failed to be pulled into it completely. Her retelling of the scene and what led up to it and her emotions being all up in the air didn't hit me as hard as they could have. If I'd been fully into the story, I'd have been crying my eyes out.
As for her romance with Sebastian. Well, I liked him a lot but I never understood the self sacrificing behaviour female characters can do sometimes where they push the guy they like/love away. What is with that?
Never the less, I did enjoy this just not as much as some of JLA's other books.

Ari Augustine (10 KP) rated The Place Between Breaths in Books
May 4, 2020
If you want a book that will take you on a true roller coaster ride of delirious emotions, The Place Between Breaths if for you. Told in a non-linear manner and delves into the raw complexity, horror, and grief surrounding Schizophrenia. Although all the jumping around might be off-putting to some readers, I found it intriguing - as if I were exploring the world the way a fractured mind would and I loved that, at times, I was confused. I know that's strange to say, but I enjoyed it's ambiguous tone riddled with dream and longing.
