a combination of bitter-sweet moments, "then parts" were so sweet that I felt like my heart was in a pool of honey , and the "now parts" shattered me into pieces. thank you Colleen for your hard work <3 ...more
a new fav book from one of my fav authors i'm not sure i can write a "decent" review right now, but i'll try to pour my feelings here, i really don't ka new fav book from one of my fav authors i'm not sure i can write a "decent" review right now, but i'll try to pour my feelings here, i really don't know what to say, i have nothing to complain about :p the characters were good, well developped, and the plot twist WAS REALLY A PLOT TWIST, i couldn't stop reading,..en grosso modo, that book made me experience different emotions, the story was "unique" (i didn't read MANY BOOKS to judge, but for me, it's unique, it's good, i can't expect less from Colleen) and i'm grateful and thankful for her !...more

"She has this way of telling half the story with her eyes before she even opens her mouth" i don't know what to say, i'm crying like a baby T-T and i d"She has this way of telling half the story with her eyes before she even opens her mouth" i don't know what to say, i'm crying like a baby T-T and i don't feel like i'm going to say much, or even spell some coherent stuff, i'm all emotions right now (thnx,Kim) so, at first, everything was normal, like many stories/ books, and to be honest, i was bored in the very beginning, i felt like; it was a sort of a diary (btw, tht blonde beautiful lady who stopped one day at the Grounds, to have coffee, what was her role in the book? !!) but with chapters/days, i fell in love with all characters (except for Sugar and the assholes :p) , who wouldn't fall for Katie, Gus or Keller? even Shelly and clay , i smiled,laughed, and cried, Kate was indeed a beautiful kind soul, and what she was going through was tough, BUT NEVER GAVE UP, NEVER COMPLAINED, and it kills me knowing that; there are many kate(s) out there, i do respect them all and tell them :BE BRAVE ! and read, as Kate said" reading is an escape from the outside world. Everyone needs a little of that to keep their sanity" (one of my fav quotes now ^^ ). that book gave me a chance to "stop and stare", think about my life,my choices, principles and values, with a petite funny girl ( a badass too) i had some fun ! and i'd like to drop one of the rules she set : Don't judge each other. We all have our own shit. Kepp your eyes on yours and your nose out of everyone else's unless you're invited in. And when you get the invitation, help,don't judge".
3.75! it's hard for me to rate it, the subject is a tough one :( rape culture, how the girl is always blamed even when she is the victim, while the ra3.75! it's hard for me to rate it, the subject is a tough one :( rape culture, how the girl is always blamed even when she is the victim, while the rappist ( in this book, he is the most popular guy) is enjoying his life ! "you can't ruin his life, they said, you are lying, parties are made for these stuff, your clothes show you are a sl**" i liked it, but it didn't "remark me", i liked Ian, I adooooored Grace *-*, her tough attitude, the way she refused to run or hide, standing against everyone, i respect her for that! Ian, at first, refused to believe her, cuz Zac is his friend, ( was more like "Zac follower") , with days they spent together cleaning the lockers, he started to "get to know her" better. His dad was a great one; i adored him too X) anyway, romance was there most of time, i think that made it easier for me not to cry some rivers. but getting back with Miranda after everyone knowing the truth, that was frustrating !! she dumbed her, she lied , she did bad things to her !!! how could Grace just forget about these things !!!!!!! -_- OH GOSH!!! ...more
"..but life was rarely full of clean and tidy resolutions. Good moments would inevitably, again, lead to bad moments, wich would lead to more good mom"..but life was rarely full of clean and tidy resolutions. Good moments would inevitably, again, lead to bad moments, wich would lead to more good moments, until there was nothing left but dust and stories. But that moment, right there, with him, that night- that was a damn good moment, and the good moments has to be remembered". reading tht book was like ...living a good moment. yeah,it took me like forever to finish it( cuz i was busy nd a bit lazy), but once i TRULY started reading it, i couldn't stop !! it was different from the other books i read before, it made me laugh,it made me cry ( but not AS MUCH AS I LAUGHED ), i got attached to the characters wich were well described, (but come on, what happened to Eugene nd Rosemary and Holland and Remy? i really wanted "an epilogue" in order to feed my hunger :'( ) , i highly recommand it !...more

We just had to accept the present for what it was."
Once I started it : I COULDN'T stop ! I love it !! I can't even put my thoughts into words (I feel like quoting John Green: my thoughts are stars i cannot fathom into constellations) , emotions are filling me, I got a chance to laugh, cry, fall in love with both Grace and Matt and eventually Ash..the story was good,heartwarming at some points and heartbreaking at others, the book is amazing (officially one of my fav 📚 ), I dunno what else to say ! ...more
