len ❀ glad you enjoyed it, imme! i decided i won’t be reading this anymore because i don’t wanna put myself through a miserable reading experience of the sequel. i’ll live vicariously through everyone else who has read this. 😂

Kati *☆・゚ [a bit distracted atm] I've seen this book around a lot. I go look up if there's an audio. Happy you had a blast, Imme girl. ❤️


liv ❁ so glad to see you loved this Imme! It really is adorable


message 31: by Imme (new) - rated it 4 stars

Imme van Gorp @Snjez — Thanks, sweetie!💗 I actually made and added the covers for the short stories here cus it was just a screenshot of the first page before that and I don’t want a non-cover on my shelves lol. So I just took the picture from the top of the page, added the title and author, and ta-da, we’ve got a cover LOL


message 32: by Imme (new) - rated it 4 stars

Imme van Gorp @aleksandra — oh my goshh, so we’re getting the second-chance trope!?😯 Ohhh I kinda of love that!! Especially if it means we’ll get to see Wes pine for Liz all over again🫢💗

cause she separates them. the sequel is wes losing liz and trying to get her back. and liz gets another friend…a boy.
