I wasn't sure if I was going to like this story line much once I read the first few pages but I honestly fell in love with it. Th character development was so well written and of course like all of Kasie West's books it just flowed so nicely and I couldn't put it down. I also love that she actually dealt with the fact that there were issues wit her parents and mental illness ext.. and it wasn't just blown over.

Tohle se mi hodnotí vážně špatně. Vím, že nejsem cílovka. To mi došlo během prvních pár stran. Jsem zvyklá na trochu komplikovanější literaturu, ale chtěla jsem vědět, co všichni na té West mají.
Nevím, jestli to navazuje na autorčina předchozí díla; strašně jsem se ztrácela v ději i v postavách, tohle autorka vůbec nevysvětlovala. Spousta dialogů nemá doplnění, takže mi dlouho trvalo zjistit, kdo co říká. A někde v půlce se mi přestalo líbit, kam ta kniha směřuje. Doufala jsem v nějaký láskyplný příběh s menším ponaučením, ale je to naprosto průhledné a... no, dost pitomé. Neupírám tomu čtivost, čte se to lehce, a místy to bylo vtipné - a překlad naprosto skvělý, bez chyb!

I absolutely loved this book. This book has an extremely sarcastic character that will make you laugh out loud. I laughed so many times. This book has a character who is trying to accomplish stuff for herself. Even though it doesn't end how she think it will it still builds her character.

3.5 stars.
I really enjoyed all the art stuff! But I felt like the romance was kind of sudden and rushed at the end.

Listened to the audiobook, but review is for content
This could easily have been a 4 star read, maybe even 4,5 since I enjoy Kasie West’s writing style, the slow pace and her characters.
But Cooper ruined everything.
Okay, I’m being a bit dramatic, but I surely didn’t like him as Abby’s love interest. He wasn’t a good friend, not at all and he only apologizes for the really big mess up he did near the end.
Everybody makes mistakes, so the one time he totally let Abby down and the big night turned out to be a big disappointment not at least because of him, he is very sorry and I think it’s absolutely fine that Abby forgives him at one point - BUT - his behavior towards Abby for the last year is just awful and not even mentioned once.
Minor spoilers...
I was so angry when the book ended. Seriously - Cooper KNEW for at least a year that Abby was in love with him. He not only didn’t talk to her about it, he constantly flirted with her, touched and tickled her, spent a lot of alone time with her and begged her to come to each and every one of his races.
He even invited the girl he dated to the same events without talking to Abby (btw, “Ris” is not cute, please don’t shorten names which are not supposed to be …).
Even if Abby wasn’t into Cooper I think it’s not nice, but she was and I repeat - Cooper knew…
Okay - rant over. I think I made my point. Cooper wasn’t that interesting to begin with, but the ending, no excuse for the last year and especially how Abby reacted - I really didn’t like it.
She did the exact same thing to Elijah what Cooper did to her - ditched her friend on a planned appointment for her love interest. Urgh…
And then they claim that friendship is so important … Yeah, no. The book left me feeling quite icky and agitated.
But I loved Abby’s grandfather and even the relationship between her parents. At least one star for gramps…
