A huge fan of architecture not knowing what a Murphy Bed is? Hrm.

This is basically a John Green book with a bit more diversity. Definitely meant for the teenaged crowd.

A quick read.  The foreshadowing in the beginning of the book was blatantly ovibous but I didn't see the plot twist coming.  I also didn't expect a sex scene and wished it wasn't in there.  It was fun nonetheless, much different than my usual reads.  I will add that if depictions of abusive families bother you probably don't read this book, it's not graphic but it's there.

• First opening the book: I like all the drawings and short pages and poetic-ness look.
• Pp. 1-120: Interesting and kinda cute, but maybe I'm not the target audience.
• Pp. 121-200: Getting interesting??? What will the consequences be??
• Pp.201-306: I'm got.

• The right amount of drama, feeling, tragedy, suspense, etc. The romance wasn't actually too bad either!

• I loved it.
