Reminders of Him

From my perspective as a mother, I guess this is a biased review. Colleen Hoover is sometimes a hit or miss for me. This time, it's almost a hit. Sometimes it's skeptical of me to like the insta love, it's not always real and I might have been seeing or reading a developmental kind of thing that the insta love thing to me has lost its charm. But the mother-child plot is amazing. I tried not to cry during the parts when the letters are coming up, it wasn't hitting me that hard anyway, but by the end of the book when the love for the kid shows, all hell broke loose and my tears just went running down. Sometimes, I think, this kind of love is amazing. The love for my children and their love for each other. I am glad Colleen turned some of this love into words because I do not have any for it.

In the middle of wiping my tears, Diem said her turtle's name is Ledger because she loves him. This is a random memory but my daughter wanted to name a dog she has been wanting to have her brother's name. When I asked why she said because I love him. Oh my goodness, this love. Sometimes it's weird.
