Me personally? If anyone died in my life and my girlfriend broke up with me after 3 weeks because I was wrecked with grief?? Yeah, she ain’t the one.

Okay this one was definitely a tear jerker towards the end there. I can't believe what happened to Beau. I'm still in shock.

I loved this whole book though. It's not my favorite out of the three books I've read so far but it was still a fantastic read. I was laughing pretty often anime reading this. I absolutely loved Dean and Allie together. I'm glad Allie found someone who wasn't going to hold her back or hurt her(at least not intentionally).

I hated Sean in this book. Which was surprising because I really liked him in the last book. But he was an absolute asshole in this book. And we really get to see just how toxic the relationship between Allie and Sean really was. The things he said to her and the names he called her were just downright appalling and I'm so glad that Allie stood her ground the entire book and refused to get back with him(and even to just be friends with him in the end).

I loved seeing the appearances from the previous characters again. I love how protective Garrett was of Allie(with Allie being his girlfriend Hannah's best friend) when everyone found out about Dean and Allie's relationship. Logan was just hilarious as always. I wish Tucker had shown up more, but with that cliffhanger I understand a little bit why he was somewhat MIA throughout this book. And I'm excited to get into his and Sabrina's story.

All in all I'm still completely loving series and can't wait to continue it. I'm getting through these books faster than I thought I would. That's how good they are.

“Seriously, just find yourself a rebound.” Dean whips up his arm. “I volunteer as tribute."

I love love love Dean and Allie together! I totally did not expect the third book to be about Dean AND Allie! I thought another unnamed character would be Dean's love interest but it's Hannah's best friend! I would not have thought of that one at all! But I guess it got to be someone like Allie who could make Dean monogamous! She's his Renesmee (*wink wink*). OMG! The bathroom scene!!!! I can't! I laughed so hard during that chapter!!!! It's been a long time since I've lol-ed irl so it's definitely a plus points.

Story-wise, it's a good read. I wasn't bored and to be honest, I listened to this in one day. So that means I was really into it. I was just sad to see how Dean handles grief because everybody's been there and yes, I can see why Allie would be like that and I'm not blaming anyone. I was just happy to see them both back together because they are definitely soulmates.

Plus points for Allie's narrator because it's waaaaay better than the previous girl narrator.

It’s by far the best book I’ve ever read. I mean woah the smut it’s was from the beginning to the end. There’s was some fluff cute shit but also I’ve felt the worst through the last chapters. And I mean I hate this feeling but I feel like it’s essential in books to feel all the emotion cause otherwise there’s no plot idk. But I hate elle Kennedy for torturing me like that. And I like this book with my whole heart because I was able to imagine everything. I was able to feel their feelings. And fuck I hate the feeling I’m having knowing that beau is dead. Because I don’t even know him he’s not even my friends they’re not even real! But I got that connection with the off campus character that I don’t have normally. I didn’t had that feeling with fictional characters yk in movies but I feel like it’s different in books and I think I that’s what I like about reading. Like I have that feeling that I’m excited to finish the book but at the same time I don’t want IT to finish… and I know there will be a finale with each of ´em but I still don’t want to stop it. I’m feeling dizzy after reading this part (where beau die). Plus I’ve never wrote things about books like I did with the score. I knew since the beginning that it was gonna be my favourite book I had high expectations.
