If He Had Been with Me

An achingly authentic and raw portrait of love, regret, and the life-altering impact of the relationships we hold closest to us, this YA best seller is perfect for fans of Kasie West, All the Bright Places, and Dear Evan Hansen.

If he had been with me, everything would have been different....

Autumn and Finn used to be inseparable. But then something changed. Or they changed. Now, they do their best to ignore each other. 

Autumn has her boyfriend, Jamie, and her close-knit group of friends. And Finn has become that boy at school, the one everyone wants to be around. 

That still doesn't stop the way Autumn feels every time she and Finn cross paths, and the growing, nagging thought that maybe things could have been different. Maybe they should be together.

But come August, things will change forever. And as time passes, Autumn will be forced to confront how else life might have been different if they had never parted ways....

if your thinking about reading, do it

this book wrecked me in the best of ways. I knew it was coming but I wasn't ready.

Meh...it's ok

Overall good. Very predictable though. I wasn't shocked at any point. A little adolescent.

Slow.

Slow and very much young adult. I fell for the hype and it did not deliver.

Great book but so damn sad

I knew it was gonna be sad but I didn’t know it was gonna be that sad. I was listening to the end of it at the store and legit broke down in the middle of the aisle. 10/10 do not recommend listening in public or people will think you’re mentally challenged crying out of nowhere

Teenage drama for most of the book

Started to get interesting toward the last few chapter and then ended. Writer spent to much time describing the kids lives growing up. Ending always was kind of expected. Recommend for younger audience.
