sebastian787 's review for:
4.5 but cuteness alone gets it up to the 5.
I came to this through the movie, like a lot of people. I loved the movie, which I'll admit had a lot to do with it being one of the first times I saw a cute teen romcom with kids that were like me. So I can't exactly say this is impartial, but... hey, I enjoyed it and that's what matters, I guess!
Simon is a little annoying at times, in that goofy clueless white boy kind of way. He's also adorable and really lovable for the exact same reason. He'll always have Nick Robinson's face to me, which definitely adds to the loveable factor. He and his friends are also really believable teenagers, to the point that sometimes I was cringing and just praying they would think a little less like irrational high schoolers. (Predictably, that did not work.)
And Blue... My heart!! I already knew who it was because of the film, so the entire time I could pick up on all the little hints and clues. I'm sure lots of people reading this for the first time will know because of the movie, but I won't say just in case someone's managed to stay spoiler free. And if you do read this spoiler free, I can definitely suggest doing a reread because again... the cutest thing ever knowing who he is all along.
I'm actually looking forward to reading the other books in the Simonverse now!
