I was recommended this book from a friend and read it. Its not something I would've thought to read when I was in middle school but since I'm trying to read more, I gave it a chance and it's my favorite book now.
I definitely knew what was going to happen but it didn't stop me from shedding tears. Their relationship was the most wholesome thing ever. And even Rubins death shocked me, bringing me to tears.
