Abby has done it again. I love her books.. Once I start one of her books I can’t put it down, I want to know what is going to happen but I don’t want it to end! This one was great!

There's something amazing about Abby's writing style. Every time I pick up one of her books it plays out like a movie. Life's Too Short was no different and I literally could not stop reading this book once I picked it up.

Vanessa is a famous YouTuber. She has a huge following and lives by one motto - life's too short - so get out there and live your very best life. Vanessa hasn't had an easy life, she lost her mother at a young age and then her sister to ALS. Her younger sister leaves her newborn in Vanessa's care and vanishes - so on top of everything Vanessa is now a caregiver to a little baby girl too. But Vanessa tries not to let anything slow her down and she loves her little niece. She tries to always have a sunny disposition and a positive attitude.

Adrian views most things in black and white. He relies on facts - he is a lawyer after all. When these two meet each other for the first time - I had a huge grin on my face. Abby knows how to write the perfect "meet cutes" and this one was no different. Suddenly Adrian and Vanessa start spending all of their free time together. Both of them state that they're not looking for a romantic relationship - but being in such close proximity to one another that's bound to happen, right?

The thing I loved most about Life's Too Short was that Abby really incorporated mental health into her book in a way that we can all relate. We all process grief, sadness and anger in our own ways, but it's what we decide to do with those feelings that sometimes make or break us. Life's Too Short can sometimes be a bit heavier to read with topics such as ALS, mental health and addiction discussed, but in between those topics is an amazing love story.

I absolutely loved and enjoyed reading Life's Too Short. Overall I would give it 4.5 stars - so many amazing parts of the book highlighted and quotes that resonated with me so deeply!

5 stars for Abby Jimenez! Having read Abby’s last 2 books, I knew this one would bring out all the emotions. I just didn’t realize just how much of them it would. Life’s Too Short was a beautiful story that opened my eyes to the struggles of ALS. The characters were fabulous, it made laugh and brought so many tears. I can’t wait to see what Abby comes up with next.

This book is GOLD! Adrian Copeland can hear a baby screaming in the middle of the night coming from his next door neighbor. At 4 am he's had enough and knocks on the door to see if he can help. Vanessa Price has had her baby niece dumped on her step because her sister is using again. She is struggling because the baby will not stop crying. Then she hears a knock at her door at 4 am with from a guy without a shirt claiming he is her neighbor and offering to help.

As the weeks move on Adrian and Vanessa start getting closer and become friends. Vanessa has put him in the friends zone because of an ALS gene in her family which means she might not live another year. They both start developing feelings for each other and both want to act.

Life’s Too Short did not disappoint! As someone who Loved The Friend Zone and Happy Ever After Playlist, Life’s Too Short stacked up well against them. The story follows Vanessa who has a family history of developing ALS and dying before the age of 30 and Vanessa is 29. She’s a famous Youtube blogger who donates to ALS from every video she puts out. She’s made peace that she will most likely die from ALS therefore when her hot lawyer neighbor Aiden comes into her life, she might just let him in. I love how the author weaves a swoon worthy love story in with real life issues in all of her novels. If you loved the first two books in this series, you’ll love this one too! 5 stars!

I received a copy of this title from NetGalley and I was, and remain, stoked! I love this author and I adore her books. There's no better world to escape to than the sarcastic, sweet, empathetic world that Abby Jimenez creates.
