Before I Let Go (The Skyland Series)

The best book I have read to this day.It literally got me into reading love, love,love.

rate: ★★★★★idek how to start here with them but oh lord my love for these two. this story truly warms me and comforts me. They honestly feels like a warm hug and I can’t get over how deep and intense their love and emotions for each other was. Even after everything that happened to them in the past and even with that damn divorce we as readers and even the members of their community could see that they were meant to be. Yasmen is a woman that carries her heart on her sleeve and feels deeply. She is more prone to act on her emotions & allow herself to feel everything. My heart truly broke knowing all she went through and the constant guilt she holds for the past. Josiah is the man that is quick to push away is feelings, the type that don’t believe in therapy & is always cool and levelheaded. His fears thou he play them down at times are real and relatable and watching him get help and dealing with everything was just perfect. These two even after everything worked hard to make their coparenting life steady. Did I mention how amazing of parents they are? Yes both kids had their own issues and seeing how they were impacted by the divorce was all to real. But Yas and Si made sure they got necessary help & Si even started therapy as a means to help their son. The Wade family is just amazing and they have my heart.

Before I Let Go wrecked me, made me laugh, and gave me hope. Marriage is hard, and I think most married people will find parts of Yasmen and Josiah's love story -- and the fallout of a shitty hand they're dealt -- relatable. I've never experienced their exact traumas, but their journeys clenched my heart. Rooting for them felt like betting on devotion and commitment as a whole. The characters in Before I Let Go were so well written, and the dialogue so on point, that they could have come to life and sat next to me and I wouldn't have bat an eye. I felt like an eavesdropper in some of the most raw and intimate moments of Yas and Josiah's lives. I felt like the fourth gal in Yas' friend group. That's probably the best review I could give this book: I felt. Every heartache. Every flinch. Every tear. Every joy.
