as a 23 yr old who is struggling in the “love” department, i wasn’t sure what feelings or emotions this book would bring me. all i could think about is how i would be reading about some teenager’s summer fling or something like that, and what makes her special ? well the answer to that is honestly nothing, her life is like anybody else’s ! which is absolutely without a doubt 100% why i loved it !!! this book is relatable on so many levels, whether you are a current teen experiencing this for yourself or an adult that is reminiscing on their own first love. everybody has one. so my answer to what feelings and emotions the book would bring me is ALL OF THEM. i got frustrated with a couple of the characters and their attitudes but this isn’t in a bad way. there were just times when i was like OMG KISS, hold her hand, or do something !! there were also plenty of times when i had to sit up because i was giggling like a middle schooler who was thinking about her crush !!! UGH I LOVED IT ALL !!! this was also my first read by jenny han, and i couldn’t be more excited to read the other two books in this trilogy ! i was enthralled by her writing style and even though the chapters jump from present to past, it was not hard to follow at all. she made everything from the setting and description to the characters and emotions they were feeling all beautiful and easy to connect with ! for me, this was a perfect summer read, especially during a time when i would like to believe i have grown and become a better version of myself ! maybe this was the summer i turned pretty too :)

RESEÑA COMPLETA EN EL BLOG:(cargando...)

MI OPINIÓN:

Jenny Han se hizo "conocida" por esta trilogía. Me pareció estar leyendo algo de Wattpad ~~(no me malentiendan, amo con todo mi corazón esa app)~~; pero muy simple, aunque divertido y entretenido. Me gustó la historia ~~(aunque odio los triángulos amorosos)~~. es perfecta si quieres algo ligerito y romántico, especialmente en verano ahre. Un buen libro.

DETALLES:

☼ Trama: Es un poco cliché, con lo del amor de la infancia o primer amor, pero funciona bien ~~(como la mayoría de tropes)~~. En fin, a mi me gustó, estuvo entretenido y siempre disfruto de un libro juvenil en el que se le de importancia a la familia de los personajes, y no sean algo como relleno o los enemigos de los protagonistas.

☼ Personajes: Bells, Conrad y Jeremiah. Además, obviamente de la familia y amigos de estos tres. Me parecen buenos protagonistas y en pocas páginas logramos conocerlos bien (su familia, sus aspiraciones, preocupaciones). Mi personaje favorito creo que sería Bells, me sentí identificada con ella y sentí también lo que ella pasaba.

☼ Final:Un poco apresurado. No sé de que van los siguientes libros pero me esperaba un final abierto, así que con ese final me sentí un poco descolocada.
