Goodreads

This book is a romance but, as I said on my TBR post, one of my best friends told me it had a lot of dark elements to it, which fitted the theme for this readathon/season.

It tells the story of a 25-year-old man who’s a writer that one day sees the most beautiful woman “inside” of him everytime he closes his eyes and starts writing about her. There’s also a lot of other things happening but I don’t want to spoil those for you
