This was my first Gayle Forman, and I loved it, too. :DAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11957514015448707063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3433746510084776903.post-48108474791000576512015-02-19T04:20:54.797-05:002015-02-19T04:20:54.797-05:00Haha awww ♥ This is different from her usual writi...Haha awww ♥ This is different from her usual writing, so let's see :)Beenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17718861012681693010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3433746510084776903.post-10414603087283564142015-02-19T04:20:06.015-05:002015-02-19T04:20:06.015-05:00The romance was cliche, probably that's why mo...The romance was cliche, probably that's why most people generally didn't like it.

Yours is only the second positive review I have read for the book, and all the others have been very mediocre, almost bordering on negative. And the point that everyone touches on is the romance, and even you touched on that aspect! So I am guessing it was REALLY unnecessary and detracted a lot from the quality of the book, which is a shame because the rest sounds so good!Chiara @ Books for a Delicate Eternityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04181153932836441611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3433746510084776903.post-21926417538868602462015-02-18T19:14:58.330-05:002015-02-18T19:14:58.330-05:00If ever I try this book this is going to be the th...If ever I try this book this is going to be the third book I read that has suicide ohmygosh!
