Tell Me Three Things

Why is this so sweet?

I love it, it's a very light hearted book n a very fast read

This is a cute YA novel that I think some of my students will enjoy, especially those who are introverted. Although it attempts to tackle the pain and uncertainty of grief, it does not go deep enough, in my opinion. Buxbaum casually adds details about underage drinking and sex, I feel that she held back with the narrator’s struggle with losing her mom. Nonetheless, I would recommend it to my students.

this book was super cute and way better than i was expecting :)) the only thing i’d say is that it was quite predictable, i knew who sn was going to be from the start.

i loved jessie as a character and all the characters are so different individually.

just a cute summer book, also it was quite a slow burn so if that isn’t your thing i wouldn’t recommend :)

Really cute! But I wished 'the reveal' happend a bit earlier so that you would've seen more of their relationship together (as a couple)
