The Distance Between Us by Kasie West 

“The next morning Xander’s waiting outside the shop again, casually leaning against a light post, like we’ve been walking to school together our whole lives. He takes a sip of my hot chocolate then hands it to me as we start walking.”

I was happy to see that this was a quote from page 56 because I love this. Every morning Xander brings Caymen a hot chocolate, and before giving it to her he always takes the first sip. It becomes a morning ritual of sorts. I love this book!
