3.0

Una noia mortale, troppo lungo e dice sempre le stesse cose, letteralmente, per 300 pagine semplicemente “la persona migliore che abbia mai conosciuto”, “la canzone più bella mai scritta”. Ripetitivo all’infinito, metto 3 stelle solo per le ultime 40 pagine dove un pochino la situazione si è mossa. Però no, bocciato, non capisco tutta questa fame per questo libro

4.0

This book was like a rollercoaster ride. I loved following along with the characters' highs and lows, and feeling both empathy and anger towards them in the process. Their voices on the page sounded so organic that it felt as if I'd been familiar with the group all my life. Each character had an interesting perspective of events, and even when they disagreed on which actions had actually transpired, I always felt like I could believe that their intentions and emotions were true. Many of the passages in this book tugged at my heart, and felt sadly relatable.

The copy of this book that I read was borrowed from my younger sister, who underlined and drew hearts around some statements about womanhood and love and Daisy's refusal to be used or made into a muse. I love that through reading it, I got to learn more about perspectives she valued. We both look forward to watching the series adapting this title, and I highly recommend reading the book beforehand. The unique storytelling method and the skillfully written words the characters utilize to both hide behind and open themselves up are worth the time and effort it takes to read them. I began reading this book immediately after waking up at seven this morning, and didn't put it down until I finished it in the mid-afternoon. It's really that engaging.

4.75

Original review, 2020: 4.5/5 ☆ character driven, no strong character development, complicated adoration with the characters, not diverse, yes flaws are a main focus! 

Second review, 2022: 4.75/5 ☆ character driven, stronger character development, still have a complicated adoration/love for these characters but are much more likable and relatable, not diverse, and yes the flaws are a main focus. I even noticed more flaws this time around 😅 this book has held true since the first time I read it. I loved it then and love it even more now! Definitely still one of my favorite books. I found so much that I related to now and from my past (like I did first time around but more so). Definitely a reflective and emotional story. This is one of those books where I don't care for the loveable nature of characters and character development bc these characters are just so raw and fleshed out. Do wish that they were my diverse though. But, I'm dying to reread it and watch the TV adaptation on Amazon Prime Video!
