I enjoyed the romance in the story, as it does feel like these characters are teenagers as there are many that think infatuation is everything or immediately means love which is definitely what you get in this story. I definitely found their deaths tragic at the end of the story. Although my main criticisms are I did not really enjoy a lot of the characters that much like the nurse and the priest were extremely annoying and unlikable in their own ways. And I thought their parents were dumb. Those are my thoughts.
