I see young adult novel goes this book was very well done. It is definitely a Coming of Age romance story. The main character goes through things such as difficult relationship with a parent and relationship with others. At times I found myself frustrated with the lack of communication between characters but I guess that's how life is. I wish there had been a little more substance to the romance as it seemed even though prominent to kind of be a subplot. Overall a good teen read or a good quick read for adults.

Re-reading this book, which I was obsessed with all throughout high school, at almost 30 hits DIFFERENT. I’m just as obsessed now as I was then. The raw emotion and pain that the characters feel vibrates off the page and is reminding me that I truly am a bleeding heart, die-hard romantic. I don’t really know what else to say other than you should reread your teenage books every once in a while bc you’ll cry really hard and feel so many emotions. 10/10 no notes. Absolutely obsessed
