5.0

Any book that makes me stay up until 1 am because I just have to finish it is an automatic 5 to me. I got invested in this love story and these characters immediately. I loved them as teenagers and then trying to find their ways back to each other. It felt real and it felt hopeful. At times I was like, “ this would all be solved with one long conversation. “ but then again, they were kids for at least most of the book. I think it’s definitely worth the read but be forewarned: it’s totally addictive and you can’t put it down.

The lesser version of Love and Other Words. Very slow paced. Didn't develop a connection to the characters. Disgusted by the main character sleeping with her boyfriend's brother.

 I really thought I was going to love this one, and I still enjoyed my time with this but not as much as I thought. I think this was heavily due to me knowing what the big "conflict" was that didn't come out until the last 15% of the book. I unfortunately saw a spoiler review before reading this. However, I really enjoyed the summer I turned pretty vibes and I would love to read what this author writes in the future!
