3.5/5

Thanks to NetGalley for providing me an eARC of this book in return for a fair and honest review.

First of all this book has trigger warnings for drug and alcohol abuse, as well as mentions of rape, suicide, and child abuse.

This book follows actress Chase London whose life has been in a downward spiral lately, and Olivia Han, a life coach that leads people through an 'adulting' boot camp as a form of therapy. Olivia is hired to get Chase's life back on track, but while helping her patient, she finally has to deal with some of her own problems as well.

My thoughts:

I really enjoyed this book. I mistakenly thought it was going to be a sapphic romance between the therapist and her patient, but I am okay with the relationships that actually occurred. This book is less of a romance and more just contemporary fiction about getting your life together after a life of struggle and hardships. It is about learning who you are and choosing to do what you want with your life.

One thing that bothered me was that some of the dialogue sounded way to scripted/therapy-babble/poetic for it to be realistic. Also the epilogue was entirely unnecessary but, overall, very enjoyable read.

Again, thanks to NetGalley for providing me an eARC of this book.

This book was a bit of a hard read. Not because it wasn’t good, quite the opposite. It was a very touch subject matter. But it was very well done and it’s not the subject matter that defines the character but how she handles it.
