Loveless by Alice Oseman

5.0

I adored this book. I was rooting for Georgia the entire time, hoping she would find herself and learn to love what she found. I am an absolute sucker for found family and boy does this book hit all the marks. I truly felt for Georgia the entire time. The writing truly made you feel her frustration and absolute devastation when she figures out she will never experience the love she dreamed about. However, it also made you feel the absolute joy she finds when she realizes that a “love story” doesn’t just mean romance, it means friends too. The last two parts of this book really got me, I started tearing up at the beautiful gestures of friendship and love. This book is one of the few I’ve read where it is directly touched on that FRIENDSHIP is the main story. Sure, Pip and Rooney have their romance which I adore (enemies to lovers hello?? I love) but at its core this book is about platonic love. And it’s beautiful. I loved Rooney and Georgia’s friendship and the fact that they are polar opposites but are the two characters who I think are the closest in this book is so remarkable. You can tell this book has so much love poured into it because it just feels like a giant hug when you read it. I love Alice Oseman so much, and I can’t wait to see what she does next! :)
