Lola and the Boy Next Door by Stephanie Perkins

5.0

OH MY GOD, I AM COMPLETELY IN LOVE WITH THIS BOOK, IT'S SO BEAUTIFUL, SO AMAZING!!!

I don't know how she does it, but Stephanie Perkins writes the most accurate books. I mean, this stuff actually happens in real life, her stories feel so real!

This book was super cute, just like Anna and the French Kiss. Lola was very frustrating sometimes, and the time that took her to break up with Max was oh-so-painful, but it was all so accurate. People really are that stupid sometimes and they stand in the way of their own happiness.

Cricket was so adorable, oh my God! He was very sweet, intelligent and such a good person. And he really loved Lola. God, he was awesome.

Lindsey was also amazing, I think she's a great best friend.

I find very interesting the fact that Lola has two dads because I really think people should be more open minded about adoption by homossexual couples.

Calliope was of a cold-hearted bitch and maybe she just wanted to protect her brother or whatever, but I still don't like her. She made a lot of crap and Lola had a very hard time thanks to her, so yeah.

Basically, this book is perfect. It really describes the feeling of falling and being in love. I loved it very, very much!!
