Recently, I read the book If He Had Been With Me by Laura Nowlin, a recommendation from my TikTok feed. Overall, I give this book 9/10. It is your classic romance book, but with some twists that kept me entertained. Especially with the main characters being teenagers, I felt like I could relate to many of the events that occurred, gaining a deeper connection and understanding. This book is one to add to your reading list (and if you don’t like to read, I highly recommend reading this book to start your journey).
Here is a quick summary to see if it piques your interest:
Autumn and Finn were the best of friends, but as time went on, they grew apart and now ignored each other. Autumn now has a boyfriend, Jamie, and a new group of friends. However, Finn has become that boy at school, and everyone wants to be around him.
Autumn still has feelings for Finn whenever they cross paths, and the idea that things could have been different consumes her mind. As time passes, Autumn realizes that she may get another chance to make things right before it is too late.
