A Thousand Boy Kisses by Tillie Cole
4.0
this was my second time reading this book and it left me sobbing like a baby. the first time I read it was months ago, and for some reason I just couldn’t get past the first few chapters. It ended up being a dnf because I really felt the writing style was too ya for my liking. but something recently told me to give it another try. and I’m so glad that I did, because wow.
the first half of the book is a bit slower, you’re just chasing the friendship/relationship between rune and poppy. but the plot twist happens once rune and his family relocated back to georgia and there’s just a whirlwind of information and emotions being through the way.
without giving away too much, this book was much heavier than I had expected so check the tw before starting.
witnessing a young love, loss and death, attachment and detachment. there’s so much more depth in these pages than I saw coming. the last few chapters I could not stop the tears, and in my books, that means this was a really good read.
