Wanted to finish this fast, like Curley’s wife. Let’s go ahead and give Colleen Hoover a Nobel peace prize because wtf is this.

hokulani_'s review against another edition

emotional funny sad fast-paced

i had to read this for school so i'm not gonna rate it but i think i am getting to the point where i can actually enjoy classics cuz i read the red pony and was like why did i even read that but now i see the point in reading a story like that (character development!!) anyway good book i think has lots of room for analysis n stuff but i couldn't even make predictions cuz someone spoiled it 4 me so THANKS vipanchi 😐
