Let me just start off by saying that all forms of art are not meant for everyone and people can have different opinions.
That being said, this book was painful to read. The dialogue felt very cliche John green 2014. *SPOILER*

The descriptions of death were very “angels coming home” and tried way too hard to be inspiring. Also the MMC describing most of the women in town as “bimbos” and putting the FMC up on a pedestal was ~not enjoyable~.
 It did have good family elements and was sweet at times, but it overall was not good.

I give it a 4.25 just because I read this book because I was told I was going to cry, and I did not. But I could see how this book would make someone emotional. Other than that, I really do like it! It’s more of a love story than a romance story, and when you start reading it you’ll know what I mean. Another reason it didn’t get five stars was because the chapters were so long. I’m a fast reader and it took me like 20-30 minutes each chapter! But other than that i enjoyed it.
