All I say is, Mae Coyiuto has gone a LONG way from this to Chloe and the Kaishao Boys. I didn't really enjoy this one and the writing was very much juvenile. But I didn't completely hate it because it did get a couple of laughs out of me.

I bought this book over a year ago, started reading it right away and stopped altogether at around the 3rd or 4th letter to her future partner. At that time, I felt like it was another one of those goody-goody love story YA books. At this moment I have to aptly say, it's not you, it's me. I was at an angry time then. So any suggestion of innocence or young love at that time will be handled begrudingly.

Thanks to #konmari, I found my copy again last weekend and decided I need to finish it before I give it away for other people to enjoy. This time, I had a great time with Cam's adventures and how she opened up to life. Unbelievably, it made me think of how clammed up I've been lately and that I need new adventures of my own. Some lines resonated so much, one of which is "maybe it's not the romantic partner that makes us complete. Maybe it's the best friend."

Read it if you want to feel like everyrhing is still possible.
