High school English teacher, Joe Delgado is dying and his dying wish is that his two favorite students, Logan and Rosemary go on a road trip with him from Washington State to Maine, where he owns a seaside cottage. The only problem: Logan and Rosemary, once best friends in their teens, no longer speak to each other in their laste twenties and haven't for 10 years...since a fateful kiss at a party when they were 14.

However, Joe has been a surrogate parent to both girls so how could they refuse? The question is can they put their differences aside to grant Joe is dying wish and will they get their lives back on track as they cross the country?

The main characters in Here We Go again and really good, including the dog Odie and Joe's former lover, Remy. The trip is fun with an underlying current of doom as Joe's cancer gets worse.It is interesting to see Logan and Rosemary confront their issues, both personal and relationship wise.

All lin all a really good read.

I have never been so happy for a book to destroy me.

Childhood best friends Logan and Rosemary turned into rival teachers and now have to band together to take their dying former teacher (a gay man named Joe Delgado) on one last road trip.

I came into this as a huge fan of Kiss Her Once for Me and was absolutely not disappointed by this second Sapphic romance. I love the nuerodivergent rep (ADHD) in both women and anxiety and messy parental baggage. Even in the ADHD rep, Rosemary and Logan clearly experience it in different way, and I loved that this highlighted how not all diagnoses present the same. The road trip was fantastic, the parallel and metaphors and callbacks were so beautifully done.

I cried...a lot. My dad fought cancer and later died of something else, and his name was Joe. So there was a lot of confrontation of grief for my own loss, and it was actually really cathartic. Cochrun captured the grief and loss in a raw, painful, beautiful way.

If you love Sapphic romances that will also utterly wreck you, this is the one.

I thought this was a super cute read. I also really loved the writing style in this read!! I thought it was such a fun read but also had quick and witty written!! It was a such a prefect read. I love how it was twist on both fake dating but also second chance romance. I also loved how this book had a found family element and it was great holiday/ winter read!!
