adventurous challenging dark emotional hopeful inspiring reflective sad medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes

lo stile di scrittura è molto semplice,  poco originale e abbastanza mediocre a dirla tutta, ma avrei comunque messo un rating piú alto (dato il mio amore per il film originale+ il finale mi ha fatto comunque piangere) se non fosse stato per le aggiunte (del tutto inappropriate e sessiste) dell'autore del libro. perché prendere un prodotto perfetto di per se e mettere queste scene che di fatt  non aggiungono nulla alla trama e che anzi mi hanno proprio dato proprio fastidio 

Absolutely beautiful: i loved this book. the pacing and language along with the phenomenal ending that just tugs at your heartstrings but still leaves you feeling fulfilled in a way. 5 out of 5 stars from me.

“We don't read and write poetry because it's cute. We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race. And the human race is filled with passion. And medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for.”

meh. not a fan of the writing, but what could you really expect from a book written after a movie?

Me ha parecido un libro que tiene buenas reflexiones sobre la literatura y poesia, la vida y la libertad. Es una lectura sencilla y amena que cuenta la historia de 5 amigos. Me ha parecido muy cotidiana y cercana a mi, a pesar del tiempo que pasa desde el tiempo en la que esta narrada la historia a la actualidad. Me ha parecido injusto que se culpara al profesor cuando era el unico que lo que proporcionaba a los alumnos era ganas de aprender y pasion por la poesia. Lo que me dejo impactada fue la muerte de Neil, no me lo esperaba, pensaba que se escaparia pero nada parecido y aunque me dio pena espero que le sirviera a su padre para darse cuenta de los mal que lo hizo.

i just have one thing to say… you can really tell that this came AFTER the movie. every line was so stilted and just appeared to be recounting a film rather than adding depth & genuine description. 

I feel like i would have enjoyed it more if i watched the movie beforehand.. I liked it but was expecting to love it
