The writing style definitely falls within the young adult genre and lacks depth in this regard. However, the plot itself is beautiful, the characters lovable and if you need a good cry (without wading through major trauma) this is the book to pick up.

Have a large box of tissues ready. This book may break you. I don’t think I’ve ever cried this much or so hard over a book in my life. A beautiful, but heart wrenching story that I’ll never forget.

The epilogue came out of nowhere for me!  Like WHAT?  

I felt highs and lows in this book.
Poppy’s letter at the end felt out of place especially for teenagers but I had to take several breaks while reading this book because the emotional damage this book causes is intense.

I have decided this is the modern day ‘A walk to remember’.

I went into this book having high expectations, I wasn’t disappointed however, the ending didn’t tear me up how i expected it to and the long chapters. 
I adored the writing in this book, it all seemed so poetic. The love story was sweet.
