I don't know how anyone can actually root for Fallon and Ben to get together when he should rot in jail.

Ben emotionally manipulates Fallon several times without it being acknowledged in the book and instead rewards him for this behavior.

1.5

É que é fácil apaixonarmo-nos, Ben. A parte difícil é quando queremos sair daí.

Acho que esperava que eu a deixasse partir sem dar luta, mas não é do género de rapariga por quem escolhemos as batalhas. É do género de rapariga por quem lutamos até à morte

Quando se encontra o amor, fica-se com ele. Segura-se com as duas mãos e faz-se tudo o que está ao alcance para não o deixar escapar. Não se pode fugir dele e esperar até se estar pronto.

- Ele hoje apareceu na nossa casa à procura da Fallon.
A Amber goza com ele.
- Então e disseste-lhe, sem mais nem menos, onde íamos estar? Porque é que foste fazer uma coisa dessas?
- Ele tem piada! - diz o Glenn, como se fosse um argumento legítimo.

Ainda assimilo o insulto quando vejo o Ben a passar por mim a correr. Antes que consiga ajustar a vista, o punho dele voa. Vejo o Glenn apressar-se para intervir, mas... espera. Não. O Glenn também esmurra o Theodore.
(...)
- Só um momento - diz a Amber, com um dedo levantado enquanto tira o sapato. - Ainda não acabei - Leva o sapato na mão e atira um olhar ameaçador ao Theodore, recuando de seguida para o arremessar, atingindo-o mesmo entre as pernas. - Detesto essas tuas calças ridículas, seu anormal! - grita. - A Fallon merece melhor que tu, e NANTUCKET TAMBÉM!

Well written, lots of romance tropes and angst without being too cliche. Plot twists on point; makes you want to reread.
