LOVE HARD by Monica James


⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Okay... when I signed up for this, I never thought that this going to be literally like a memoir.

That entry about her father was the probably the most heartbr3aking for me because it was relatable. The longing, the grief... it was all palpable. I wasn't looking to cry when I picked up this book but I did... and then after that, I got kinda confused... 

I haven't read something like this before... like it's a hybrid between a memoir, a personal diary and a romance novel... I don't even know how I feel about, to be honest... there was not a defined happily ever after... like, she chose someone but it seemed unsure or hanging... I don't know to describe it. 

I must've not understood the blurb or I probably didn't read and understand it. Saw it was from this author and thought, it's been a while since I've read from her, thought I'd signed up.... 

Anyway, it must've been hard opening up yourself like that to the world...
