I did not think I could love Eden and Josh more than I already did. But this book proved me wrong. The Way I Am Now is quiet and powerful. It is about healing, about learning how to live again, about choosing love even when it feels impossible. Eden's growth is slow and messy and beautiful. Josh is patient and kind and exactly what she needs. Their relationship felt real in every way. I cried. I smiled. I held my breath. This story gave me hope. It reminded me that healing is not perfect, but it is possible. Josh and Eden are everything to me.
