J'avais pas mal d'attente parce que j'avais beaucoup aimé À cinq pieds de toi. Au début, j'avais l'impression qu'il manquait un petit quelque chose et je me suis dit que peut être  les histoires d'ado c'était plus trop pour moi. En plus, j'avais l'impression d'avoir deviné où ça s'en allait. Mais finalement, j'avais tout faux et j'étais scotché à mon livre pour la révélation du plot twist.qui m'a tenu debout un peu trop tard à mon retour du travail. Et la fin aussi m'a vraiment tenu, je ne m'attendais pas à ça. Ça frôle le coup de cœur ce roman.

Simplemente perfecto, te ayuda a recordar la magia que debería siempre existir!

zaczęło się bardzo fajnie, właściwie mogłam się przyczepić jedynie do nieco zbyt szybkiego tempa akcji. główny plot twist zaskakujący, ale od tego momentu akcja stała się zbyt naciągana, pojawiły się luki w fabule i trudne do uwierzenia zbiegi okoliczności. pod koniec czułam przesyt plot twistów i naciąganych wydarzeń. zabrakło mi pogłębienia portretu psychologicznego postaci, chwilami trudno było mi uwierzyć w ich entuzjastyczne reakcje i brak kwestionowania zdarzeń, które dla mnie były zastanawiające.

z plusów na pewno książka była ciekawa i wciągająca; dzięki temu, krótkim rozdziałom i dużej czcionce szybko się ją czytało. polubiłam też bohaterów, zwłaszcza głównego. kyle jest świetnie wykreowaną postacią - o ile w końcówce brakowało mi pogłębienia portretu psychologicznego bohaterów, kyle się do tej grupy nie zalicza.

3 estrellas, creo que las últimas 40 páginas del libro me mataron el mood, pero es una lectura ligera con una historia bien tiernita aunque el protagonista pueda ser algo desesperante

[ my first time writing a review so forgive me haha ]

I was honestly quite disappointed by this book. Like expected a lot more for the plot and everything ;-; I mean the plot twists were everything. They were awesome. I would have never expected them. Like at all. But for some reason the writing just didn’t sit right with me 😓

First of all, the overall storyline was beautiful. It’s original. It’s nice. And it would have been so much better had the writing been able to reach that standard that was required to make it a success :(

Personally, I would recommend reading the book for it’s overall plot rather than writing and well… romance :’( because honestly, I didn’t really feel the love? Like I get it’s a romance book and all, but I felt that the romance wasn’t well written. It just felt a little flat to me. I expected that heart-wrenching love that tugged at your heart [especially after this author duo’s amazing first book, Five Feet Apart :)] but like All This Time really didn’t live up to that. The romance between Kyle and Kelsey felt rather ungrounded. (Especially since their love wasn’t just some puppy love but was portrayed as something strong and binding and well, powerful — even though I didn’t see much strong romance scenes between them leading up to that)

SPOILER ALERT


Especially after Kyle discovers that Kelsey was telling him stories while he was in a coma, and then they two just end up in love? Like I get the love from Kyle’s end because everything felt real to him, but Kelsey? A girl in a hospital who has just been talking to a random patient who was asleep in his bed? I think there needed to be more scenes where Kelsey began to reciprocate the love from Kyle, because it just felt rather strange to me.



Anyways, overall? Nice plot. but… eh. I wasn’t really a big fan of this book’s writing style. As the plot progressed, I felt the writing became more and more… cringey? idk man I was cringing quite a bit towards the end ;-; sorry but that’s the truth 

ALSO, the cover art is *chef’s kiss* amazing. Beautiful. I absolutely love it. Whoever made it (and Five Feet Apart’s one as well) needs a raise because damn, I’m in love with the cover.

But please, don’t take it that I didn’t enjoy reading this book. It was a fairly good read and I did enjoy some parts, but I just didn’t enjoy it as much as expected, that’s all. <3
