Es la segunda vez que lo leo. La historia es muy divertida y es mejor que la de la película (puesto que en este es una historia totalmente diferente con los personajes del libro y algunas partes de la historia original). Sin duda todo quien les guste la película debería de leer el libro y viceversa.

I think the book version got over hyped from the posts I saw of it. Is the book good, why yes. It is an enjoyable read and the characters are flawed but loveable, but I think the book vs movie debate got too hot and really gave me heightened expectations for the book version.

The love story here is very subdued and the ending with them staring at each other with heart eyes almost caught me off guard. It almost felt a bit disconnected from the actual events of the story since the mostly just bickered, but to each their own.

I really really loved it! The characters are witty and funny and it was just a joy to read! I thought at first that I would just read this first book since I'd seen the movie and wanted to compare, but now I just want to read everything Diana has ever written! A new favourite for me.
