3.0

3.8 / 5

I read this book in pieces, due to my life suddenly being rolled leftways and sideways so i ended up having this book laying by my bed, instead of finished in my bookcase.

The way Maurene Goo writes her books, heals me. I know it sounds odd, but her book [b:The Way You Make Me Feel|35704397|The Way You Make Me Feel|Maurene Goo|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1505855827l/35704397._SY75_.jpg|57200490] is the reason why I even go to bookstores, it's what kept me reading.

and so, i loved this book. It was insane, absurd, i definetly was missing from friend dynamic, but i adored the dad. Fact is, the way Maurene Goo writes her family dynamics is why i love them at all.


Now to turn to the main part of this book, the romance, i found it rather odd and a tad toxic at times. Which isn't the worst thing, let's be honest we all have our toxic moments as teens. (i atleast did.) but the way Desi tries to figure out the world by using the things she knows, is quite interesting.

so.. the main reason why this is a 3.8 and not an 5 or a 4,5, is because i would've preferred it to be 100 pages longer so the friend dynamics would've worked out better and we maybe would've gotten some more soccer, or desi being all nerdy.


I liked it, it stands proudly in my bookcase, as this author is one of my favorites for letting my escape from this even more insane real world.
