I fail to understand the reasons Tara was so against their relationship, aside from the whole dad/best friend situation. The writing was solid and I enjoyed reading it, but that’s about it.

If you want to feel every emotion possible in the span of four hundred pages, pick up this book. I inhaled it and loved it

Стартира много добре и след 50% започна неотклонно да крачи надолу. Толкова. Много. Патос. Всеки залез, всеки поглед, всяко докосване беше описано с половината прилагателни на света. Всяка емоция беше преекспонирана. Всеки проблем беше преувеличен. Драмата имаше страхотен потенциал, който в голяма част от времето се коренеше в реални морални дилеми. Но вместо Хартмън да се концентрира в мръсната реалност на ситуацията тя реши да изпадне в словоблудства и писателски онанизъм. Крайният резултат? От наистина емоционална и сърцераздирателна, историята се превърна в прозаична, раздута, кичозна и скучна. На моменти имах чувството, че чета словоизлиянията на някоя хормонална тийнеджърка.

I´m not sure what to rate this, but I suppose I´ll go with 3,5. The immaturity of some of the characters was driving me crazy. Halley and Reed´s love story was honestly mediocre, and I also don´t understand how Reed went from "I can´t marry you. I´m not having any more babies" to proposing a year into the relationship, getting married, and adopting two kids.
