Me ha gustado mucho la trama del libro, aunque se me ha hecho muy muy lenta porque hay muchísimo relleno, sobre todo al describir cosas y porque repite las mismas cosas una y otra vez. A parte de eso el libro lo he visto muy bien, me ha gustado mucho el personaje de Shannon y me daba muchísima pena. Cada vez que ella narraba me bebía los capítulos, no como los que narraba Johnny, que eran insoportables porque gran parte de él o hablaba del dolor de su cirugía o los chicos de su equipo diciendo groserías de las mujeres. Aunque los chicos eran unos asquerosos, Johnny es el caso aparte junto a Gibsie (aunque dice sus groserías), Hugghie y Joey, que es el mejor hermano que alguien podría tener. 
Lo que más me ha entretenido ha sido la segunda mitad del libro.

I don’t know how to express my love for this book. It was a very real love story similar to Normal People (not just the Irish connection). And it’s a 600+ page slow burn which I LOVED. And Gibsie is my favourite ofc!
