So, I read at work, because my internet is so bad I need something to do while I wait for the page to change ;), and sometimes it's business is slow but I have to be here.....
I read this book between 9 am and 4 pm, and spent the entire day wanting to burst into tears because I was COMPLETELY involved int he emotions of the characters, she had me at HELLO.
I think this is a wonderful story for kids who have issues they're afraid to talk about, for kids who've suffered a loss and it consumes them, it's just a great book for people....with kleenex.
Excuse me, sniff, I have to go find the next book...

When i first picked up this book, i really didnt know i'd cry this much, i knew it was sad obviously but not to the point that i would be crying even after i finish it.
Declan's story affected me so much. The more he talked about his story the more i felt so bad for him and cant help crying for him. The way no one stopped and asked him why is he like this? Why does he push people away from him? Everyone thought hes a bad person and no one dared to understand him not even juliet. she didnt want to believe the letter guy is him because it was not what she expected him to be. I mean what do you expect from someone who went through hell but survived? he's not going to go to school smiling like an idiot (spoiler btw) when he fucking tried to kill himself months ago.
I really dont like juliet's character, shes so immature and hypocrite maybe bc of her age and im not really expecting a teen to be a perfect person but there were so many times she could have done better things than to make declan hates himself more. I hated the way she treated him. She constantly kept judging him every time she opened her mouth which made me hate her. At some point while reading this book, i started thinking she does not deserve him AT ALL and i still stand by that.
The scene i loved the most is the conversation between declan and his stepfather. I ugly cried so much and now my eyes are swollen. He defended declan more than his own mother (btw i hate her too). Like everyone did at first, i despised him but now i feel like he was the only person who cared to defend declan and call out his parents for what they did to him.
Declan, alan and rev are the only characters i liked.

I don’t want to classify this as a romance novel. It was definitely coming of age and not cliched at all.

Mam wrażenie, że ta książka jest niedopracowana. Brakuje mi w niej czegoś. Jakby autorka napisała szkic i zapomniała go rozbudować. Ale plus jest taki, że bardzo szybko się ją czyta

Tahle kniha se vážně povedla a jsem moc ráda, že jsem si ji nakonec, na doporučení kamarádky, přečetla.
Doma ji mám v podstatě od jejího vydání, ale přiznám se, že když jsem viděla ohlas, jaký na sebe strhla, dost mě to odradilo. Ne snad, že bych si nechtěla přečíst dobrou knihu, ale bohužel u mě už nějakou dobu převládá zkušenost, že čím víc se o knize mluví a píše, zvláště pokud je pak hodně vychvalovaná a vyzdvihovaná, skončím po jejím přečtení, většinou jen s velmi zklamaná a znechucená. Je skvělé, že výjimky stále existují a že přečtení této knihy můžu s čistým svědomím jen doporučit, protože skutečně stojí za to. A že na tom nic nemění ani to, že se děj odehrává ve středoškolském prostředí.
