When I read it as a teenager I loved it. Even read it multiple times. Now I see how problematic this book is. Still can’t rate it lower because of the love I once had for it.

I watched the show before the book. I will say the show represented the book pretty well. I listened to the book on audio which was two different voices for Hannah and Clay which was nice. Obviously a heartbreaking story but a good read.

Sinceramente mi aspettavo che questo libro non mi sarebbe piaciuto per niente, essendo che avevo visto delle recensioni da 5 e altre da 1.
A me è piaciuto molto nonostante non trattasse temi facili.
Lo consiglio molto e sono felice di avergli dato una possibilità.
Mi è piaciuto molto anche lo switch del font anche se ci ho messo un po’ per abituarmici.
