Summary
To the first boy I ever loved。
I intended to keep my promises to you。 I swear。 I loved you， Matthew Caldwell。 With my whole heart。 I think a piece of me will always love you。
But it all came crashing down when I realized you didn’t keep your promises to me。
I refuse to take any of my days for granted。 I learned that the hard way。
So I’m sorry。 But I can’t keep my promises to someone who didn’t keep theirs。
XOXO，
-Brooklyn Sanders

This was a definite roller coaster！ A whole lot is found out， a lot is going on， and I can’t tell you any of it！！ Or， more to the point， I won’t。 Because that’s what the book is for。 To experience this in all its glory， you must go in as I did， unknowing before hand。 Trust me， it’s worth it。

This book was not at all like i expected。But it was worthwhile reading if you are caught up in the world that Ivy has built。This book answers many questions from books past and aligns with other books in Ivy's sphere。But it also sets up books Ivy will probably put out going forward。This book is fun， whimsical， dramatic， emotional as Brooklyn navigates what her life has become。 Some by forced choices， some by choices of her own。But it's an integral part of the Empire High series。And there are so This book was not at all like i expected。But it was worthwhile reading if you are caught up in the world that Ivy has built。This book answers many questions from books past and aligns with other books in Ivy's sphere。But it also sets up books Ivy will probably put out going forward。This book is fun， whimsical， dramatic， emotional as Brooklyn navigates what her life has become。 Some by forced choices， some by choices of her own。But it's an integral part of the Empire High series。And there are so many pieces of unexpected parts you just never see coming。Can't wait for what's next。 Because yes， this ends on a cliffhanger。 。。。more

heart break and tearsI can’t even express my emotions。 I need to visit my therapist to unpack this trauma。 Only Ivy can build a love story in such a beautiful way where you feel you’ve lived it along side fictional characters。 This book rebuilt me and tore me apart again。

Oh。 My。 God。 I'm literally stunned by Ivy once again。 Let me give you a quick little tidbit about my relationship with Ivy books: James and Penny have always been my number one favorite couple she has written。 No one else has ever come close for the love that I have for James and Penny。。。 until this book。 We were all wondering where Ivy was going to take us with the ending of the last book。 To catch you up to speed: Brooklyn and Matt were in love and set to get married （in high school） in a mont Oh。 My。 God。 I'm literally stunned by Ivy once again。 Let me give you a quick little tidbit about my relationship with Ivy books: James and Penny have always been my number one favorite couple she has written。 No one else has ever come close for the love that I have for James and Penny。。。 until this book。 We were all wondering where Ivy was going to take us with the ending of the last book。 To catch you up to speed: Brooklyn and Matt were in love and set to get married （in high school） in a month。 That was until Brooklyn played a prank with the Hunter brothers， pissed off Matt， left broken hearted to a home where her father literally tricked her into giving him her kidney and faked her death。 Then， Matchmaker came out and we see what Matt's been up to in the 16 years since Brooklyn "died。" That book ended with Brooklyn showing up on her BFF， Kennedy's， doorstep all these years later， very much alive。 So， what was going to happen in this book？ Were we going to find out what Brooklyn's been up to all these years， who did she end up with， did she still love Matt， Mattlyn vs Mennedy， who was that kid， etc。 When I say that this book threw me for a loop and surpassed all my expectations， I wholeheartedly mean it。 I'm not going to spoil this book because it came out about 12 hours ago but what I will say is that this book broke me in all the gut-wrenching ways and Ivy created the most beautiful story she's EVER written。 I did NOT expect the storyline that happened here and I think that's what makes it all the better。 It was such a genuine， pure storyline that made my heart fall madly in love。 This book now holds my number one favorite couple and my favorite story。 Definitely read the books prior to this but this is absolutely marked down as a favorite of 2022 already and a DEFINITE recommend from me。 。。。more

This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers。 To view it， click here。 This book was a huge disappointment。 Brooklyn found comfort in Miller， but never loved him the way he deserved。 While Matt grieved her， she resented him for “moving on。” She has no firsts left to give Matt… honestly those firsts were what had kept me strung。 There’s nothing left。 I’m just saddened that one of my favorite book couples has gone to crap。
