Honestly, picked this book solely for its gorgeous cover. Was strolling Barnes and Noble, had never even heard of it, but also couldn’t let it stay sitting on the shelf.
At first, I wasn’t feeling the writing (most likely because I just finished reading the entire Throne of Glass series). Then after I grew assumed to it, I felt like it was all moving so fast that it wasn’t realistic. Only to realize why it “wasn’t realistic”. Everything made sense, everything felt right.
I absolutely loved this book as a whole. Those last few pages had me ripping my heart out and putting in back in my chest repeatedly. It was a super quick read and welcomed palette cleanse after such a long series prior.
Hands down would recommend and would reread.

até quase a metade do livro a história não me prendeu nem um pouco, achei os personagens chatos e com um desenvolvimento muito raso. a conexão que o kyle tem com a marley é muito forte mas isso se dá principalmente porque a história toda era fruto da cabeça dele, então eu não vi sentido algum em eles terem se aproximado tão rapidamente quando o kyle despertou. além disso, achei que a forma com que o kyle superou a kim tão rapidamente foi muito mal desenvolvida, ele passou os primeiros meses remoendo a morte dela para depois de um tempo se aproximar da marley, superar tudo e ao acordar agir como se tudo estivesse resolvido. apesar do plot interessante (talvez um pouco superestimado), os pontos de mau desenvolvimento, as incoerências e o final forçado e meia boca não me deixaram gostar tanto do livro da forma que eu imaginei que gostaria.
Okay. I couldn’t put the book down.
I didnt see the twist coming!
Did I cry? OFCOURSE 3 TIMES….
But I loved every minute of it ❤️

Just when I thought there would be some kind of closure, the authors threw in one plot twist after another and suddenly Marley had been hit by a car, then she flatlined, and then she was alive. This book almost made my heart stop multiple times

I received an eARC courtesy of Simon & Schuster Books for Young Readers & NetGalley in exchange for my honest review.
This book has left me feeling conflicted. Mainly because I'm not sure what genre I would place it in. I get that it is meant to be a contemporary romance, but I just didn't particularly find much romantic about it. I think this definitely has teen appeal-it is certainly a quick read. The characters have parts that are relatable as are the relationships between them.
That being said the relationships are where I'm struggling here. The codependency between Kyle & Kimberly is addressed, but that same level of obsessive codependency between Kyle & Marley is made to seem somehow more acceptable and like it represents the ultimate love story. To me it just seemed rather unhealthy.
For libraries: If you have die-hard fans of Five Feet Apart, this one will do very well in your teen collection.
