That was a whole rollercoaster. I didn’t expect half the things that happened to happen. It was honestly so refreshing and nothing I’ve read in a while comes close to how surprised i was whilst reading it.

I loved this book. It describes and shows grief as not just something that happens but as something that can change and define your life. The characters are flawed and not what you expected them to be, They all deal with grief and hold unto it in different ways but it is the people in their lives that help them to remember what happened but to move forward and towards the future. There is a major plot twist towards the middle to end and I almost cried in the middle of class but it was eye opening and amazing.

this book is a lot to take in.
i cried too much, to the point that in certain parts, i couldn’t breathe.
i usually loathe books with male characters as main characters because i couldn’t relate to them, but kyle is definitely not that type of protagonist. he’s very thoughtful, open, understanding, selfless, and overall, a wonderful person. in all honesty, i disliked marley at the start, but she grew to me as i read the book.
what threw me off is that sometimes, their dialogues became too cheesy. i also don’t see their dialogue as something people their age would use. it’s your typical ya romance, but with a depressing twist.
overall, i enjoyed the book and would highly recommend it for anyone who loves five feet apart or the fault in our stars.
