WHOLESOME is the word for this book. I never thought I would like a past and present POV until this one. The way Macy and Elliot’s friendship developed due to their love for books and how they were each other’s ’everything-ship’ ugh… I died.

Let me start by saying: miscommunication is a b*tch.

Losing contact with someone who used to be your everything is probably one of the hardest things in life. Especially if it is over miscommunication. One year turns into eleven years and next thing you know there is too much history to even bring up the reason why you lost communication with that person.

This book dives into how friendship started and how it ended and how it began all over again. Let’s just say; it made me believe in ”if it’s meant to be, it will be”

Favorite word: you

4/5

This is such a cute and quirky read. This started off and stayed about the same. The whole time I was anticipating on what was going to happen. The character development on this was so adorable. Relatable in a way because I am always arguing back for the sake of arguing.

This book also touches the subject of ”bad luck” often times, when life doesn’t turn out the way you planned, you think think of it as bad luck or you are an unlucky person. People believe in four leaf clovers or lucky pennies, but in reality; luck is what you make of it.

A lucky penny or a leaf is does not hold magic, but the actions you take when you associate good things happening when you have these things is what matters. We get so caught up with the bad things that happens all the time that when something good happens, we look at it as ”luck”

The Unhoneymooners is definitely a relatable book for a lot of people who dreams big but have to face the obstacle of reality.
