OH. MY. GOD. I cant believe I waited this long to read these books. In light of the show, I finally picked them up after owning them for about a year. I knew I liked Jenny Han’s writing, as I loved TATBILB, but these books blew that out of the water. Everything about these books was amazing, and I love the idea of

the infinity necklace scenes. The necklace itself was a physical reminder of Conrad’s story, and the whole theme around it make my heart ache for someone like that.

. Overall, these books made me understand empathy in a new way, and helped me realize that hurt people hurt people, and sometimes, it’s our overwhelming love for people that causes us to hurt them. P.S. I was team Jeremiah until

he pulled a Ross from Friends, which is my least favorite couple ever in the history of media.

. Cannot recommend the books enough, and now I can finally watch the show!
