biancareadsbooks's review

I'm choosing to dnf at 58% of the way through simply because the writing has become unstomachable. It's utter torture I thought I was genuinely going crazy when things weren't making sense! the number of times I've reread lines trying to make sense of it all was no longer possible. Aaron deserves to go out Regina George style truthfully. I don't think therapy can even help that boy. Nate Hawkins is ultimately perfect and has wasted his time with someone as annoying as Stassie.  Lo and Robbie are cute as the book could probably just be about them and I'd read it. I had hopes for this story and probably should have just never picked it up. If you are a teenager wanting to read this book please don't there are too many spicy scenes that you probably shouldn't be reading if you are under 17. Oh and the one thing about this whole story. Nate assuming there is cheating when nowhere in the previous chapter was there anything of the sorts?! they also are not dating! so why is there mentions of cheating. Hannah Grace takes way to long trying to explain something. she drags this book to be way longer than it needs to be and finally, she puts events out of order and then wont explain certain things. 
How is this book popular? How are the ratings of this book so high? please save yourself and the time and do not pick up this book!

this book was literally everything i like in a book. it was so easy to read, loved the characters (minus aaron), loved the tropes, everything. nathan was such a good book boyfriend though. the spice, the communication, the quotes, etc. he was just perfect for stas. the only two things that led this to a potential five star to a four isssss…..the stupid ass pregnancy trope. and the fact stas kept calling nate BUB?! love you stas, but absolutely not.

I would give this more than 5 stars if I could. This book had everything. Emotion, romance, insane character development, real life problems, strong friendships, supportive friends and relationships, postive therapy experience, amazing love story, and of course the steam was definitely there. I cried at the end. So good! I need more ice skating and hockey in my life.
