I don't know how to feel about the book. It has parts of it, that I really liked, but overall, it was just really slow and then everything happens on the last 100 pages. I just looked for the sequel and saw that there are actually three of them and a spinoff. I guess I'm just not gonna read those. Maybe I'm just to grownup for another love despite all odds YA novel. As it was published in 2009, I guess it's another one of those books being written and published then, because everyone loved it then. We have moved on now.
Graphic: Bullying and Toxic relationship
Moderate: Death, Death of parent, Panic attacks/disorders, and Violence

I changed this from a 4 to a 3.
This is pretty good, but it’s so long for no reason and it’s kind of really boring at times. The concept is good. I don’t care about the love story like I found them so boring. Ethan is funny at times. My favorite part of this is honestly the side characters and the small town vibes. I think it’s time for me to finally part with owning this.
