I first read this book when I was 15/16 and adored it. Rereading it now I realize that it was never that amazing to begin with. While I still love some of the quotes and the main characters themselves, Rowell didn’t do enough research over Parks character and the romance was (while cute) very rushed into.
Graphic: Body shaming and Bullying
Moderate: Racism, Racial slurs, and Sexual content
Minor: Cursing
