If I say that I loved it then are people gonna hate me? Well, Cause I seriously did! I'm head over heals for this book. I wonder why would someone even hate such a masterpiece. Cause like girl, This book has such a great story that it kept me curious all the time, I read it in 2 sittings and when I was not reading it, I couldn't get it Outta my head and kept thinking about what would happen next and all. 
Talking about Lily, Lily's character is controversial, she isn't a bad person but I think she should have told Ryle about the magnet, journals and everything by herself in the starting only, Ryle has been really understanding with her since the beginning but the only issue was the physical pain he gave to Lily and which I would say is totally WRONG. You can't always blame your syndrome or whatever for your bad deeds, you need to correct yourself too. Ryle did love Lily and it could be seen in every piece of the book but whatever Lily did and left him at end was totally right thing to do. I loved Lily's mom, she was so supportive towards Lily, like she made her understand that if Ryle really loved Lily, he would leave her for her sake only and he did that too. I was sad , heartbroken but he couldn't take back any damage he had given to Lily. 
Now, Talking about Atlas, There wasn't much part of Atlas and Lily of present time but from the past time , I can say only one thing, I L.O.V.E. Him. He left Lily and made his life better, not just for him but for Lily too. He came back to find her just like he had promised but..he saw her kissing her ex and thought she was happy so he shouldn't ruin her happiness. I mean what else qualities do you want in a man? Even after years, he couldn't get over Ellen's Show which he used to watch with Lily..He's a keeper girl. Hate me if you want but I'll say I love him <3.
Now, Last but not the least, my one of the most favourite characters, Lily's Bestfriend and Ryles' sister Alyssa, Her statement that as Ryle's sister she wishes Lily forgives him but as her bestfriend she wishes she never goes back to him or else she won't talk to her, literally won my heart. Lily seriously got the best bestfriend one could ever get.
Loved this book. A perfect 5 stars.
