The short chapters made this a very quick and moorish read. 
The plot twist was executed well and looking back there certainly were several hints that I can’t believe I missed. 
I do feel like the twist would’ve hit much harder for me however if the characters were more interesting; ultimately i don’t care that much about what may happen to them since they were almost all quite 2 dimensional. 

An easy and engaging summer read!

It was difficult to distinguish all of the characters in the story sometimes but the twists and turns were unexpected! Sad story with a death trigger warning.

"Here in some way we are young forever"

I have no words. That plot twist had me reading the rest absolutely gobsmacked and in tears. Don't underestimate the tension in the chapters leading up to the plot twists either because knowing you're about to find something huge out and not being able to turn the pages quick enough, is such an overwhelming feeling haha. Also looking back It's was to notice that almost everything is important and means something. I don't think there were any accidents written into this book. 

The writing throughout this novel is so beautiful and the imagery created is breathtaking. The use of metaphors is so clever and really added something unique and memorable to the story. This could be a literally masterpiece, but I'm not sure I'm qualified enough to award that title. That being said I did get the ick a few times but was that really a big deal, the romance was cute anyhow.

If you’re going to read this please stop reading reviews - this book is incredible when you have no idea what is going to happen!
