Review: Before the Streetlights Come On

I’m just going to say it…

While I’m still beefing with Ashley Antoinette over Moth to a Flame and the Ethic series…

This one? I really enjoyed it.

Before the Streetlights Come On felt different. It wasn’t just a story… it felt like a reminder.

A reminder of friendship.

Of growing up.

Of the silent battles people carry without ever saying a word.

There were moments in this book that had me thinking: “What about your friends?”

Because that’s really what stood out to me.

We move through life assuming people are okay…

Meanwhile, everyone is going through something they don’t always feel safe enough to share.

And that hit.

What I appreciated most was how real the relationships felt. Not perfect. Not always pretty. But honest.

It made me think about how important it is to have at least one person who you can be completely open with.

Someone you don’t have to filter yourself around.

Someone who sees you fully.

Because everybody deserves that.
