lfairfax's review against another edition
I kept getting annoyed at how the main characters brother keeps insistently pressuring her to tell their mom about the football guy chad or whatever his name was. Just freaking let her handle/process things how she wants/needs. The situation was still having an effect on her and at the same time wasn’t an urgent issue that a parent desperately needed to be involved in. (I felt like) The climax of the book was building up to the main character finally coming clean to her mom and it was just really pissing me off. I didn’t feel like it was a character flaw that she wanted to keep a painful experience private, and her brother threatening to tell their mom just made me want to slap him and then shake him and then scream at him to shut up.
Other than that very fun book (from what I read). Irish guy was cool. Heartbreak hand guide lady was very very cool. Would pay for her advice and activities.
Anyways, I haven’t really read (more than a few pages of) this book in a few months so I don’t know that this is a super accurate reflection of the book. But it’s what I got away from it after finally deciding not to finish it so here you go
