This book was a very lovely read. I don’t usually read coming of age novels but I remembered someone online recommended it to me a while back. I really didn’t see the plot twist coming because it had been so long since I read the summary that I was basically going in blind. I recommend this book to people in high school who feel misunderstood. The message was lovely, and I appreciate the effort that the author took to portray OCD in an educated and respectful way.

I wouldn’t say it was my favorite but it definitely wasn’t too bad. I didn’t like the writing at first, it just wasn’t my preferred style but it really grew on me by the end. There are a couple things I didn’t like about it. The main thing was that the bigger girl always wrote on food wrappers or always wrote about food. I don’t know this just seemed a bit distasteful considering it made up most of her personality that we perceived. I do understand that she was a confident and funny character but it just didn’t sit too well with me. The writing of the romance is done pretty well I would say I loved the tension. It was a pretty decent read.

Never has a book EVER shocked me like this one just did. Lord, that plot twist I did not expect at all. I read it so many times because I thought my brain was playing tricks me with me. 

Caroline 🙁🙁🙁🙁.

I felt like I was in this book as the story progressed; it felt so realistic. I can’t comment on the accuracy of how Tamara Ireland Stone portrayed OCD, but you can tell that lots of research went into it and she knew what she was writing.

Man, I want Poet’s Corner to be real SO BAD. My friends and I would literally never leave. It’s such a cute concept.

AJ has been added to my list of blond guys that I like (there’s only two). This man was so fine, I can’t even put it into words. When he taught Sam how to play the guitar 🥲🥲🥲. When is it my turn??????

The way I SOBBED at the end of the book ain’t right.
