I fell in love with hope by Lancali

emotional sad

3.0

I had such high hopes for this. In the beginning it gave me Red Band Society vibes and I was excited bc I loved that show… but the more I read the more it just fell flat for me. Was it heartbreaking!? Absolutely. It just felt very overly written. Like the author was trying to make it deeper than it needed to be. I felt myself rolling my eyes at some of the dialogue in this, as many others have stated, reading like a quote on a Pinterest board. I just wish I could take away the over the top dramatics and read just a beautiful, sad, love story about a group of friends living and surviving and dying together. I found myself just scanning paragraph after paragraph of nonsense. It was okay, not my favorite but I just walked away from it more bored than sad.
