⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5 Fantastic Stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Dear Love, I Hate You is the first-ever book that I’ve read from Eliah Greenwood, and I can assure you that this book is hands down one of the best books that I've ever read this year. Like OMG?! I seriously didn't expect that this book would be so enjoyable, and I can't even describe the love that I have for Xavier & Aveena. These characters managed to own me throughout the entire story that even after I have finished reading it, I need some time to process everything.
Long story short, the story is basically about two ''strangers'' (Xavier & Aveena) who started exchanging confessions about their secrets to one another. Little did they know that the person that they have been exchanging letters to is the person that they least expected. In the book, I seriously liked Xavier & Aveena because these two have great chemistry with one another and we can seriously felt the connection that these two have. Not only that, but the other side characters were also greatly written which really intrigues my curiosity to want to read more about them.
Moreover, what I truly liked about this book is that it's not really your typical NA bully romance. I felt like it was so much more. Even most of the secret confessions that were written by these two have a very deep meaning which could affect the reader's emotions one way or another. That's seriously one of the main reasons why I love this book.
Also, this book has a high level of angst. Like seriously, you can't even imagine the amount of angst that was poured into this book which totally broke my heart. I even cried a couple of times. It was pretty devastating when we get to read more about the tragic past of these characters and the way they are struggling and suffering because of it. I have to warn you that this book will bring you into an ultimate emotional roller coaster ride, so please prepare yourself mentally & emotionally before starting this book

Wieso muss man heutzutage sozialmedia in Büchern erwähnen, SNAPCHAT?! dass die sich Bilder schicken und es 4 Sekunden lang machen ?? No, absolut nicht. Und dann hatten die Telefonsex, als ob ich nicht schon genügend gelitten habe.
Das war so Drama beladen, ich wollte am Ende garnicht mal weiterlesen. Das war mir einfach zu viel, zu viel Einsatz, zu viel zu verlieren. Ich hab das Gefühl die beiden hatten nie wirklich die Zeit um glücklich zusammen zu sein. Sonst hatten die immer noch Hindernisse. Nach jedem glücklichen Moment (Sex) kam schon wieder ein Problem. Und ich muss wegen dem Sex sagen dass ich das irgendwie nicht erwartet habe. Normalerweise wenn ich sehe dass es um Highschool Schüler geht nehme ich an dass es YA( young adult) ist oder zumindest keine Sex Szenen enthält, aber dies war hier leider nicht der Fall. So kann man wohl den Roman als New-adult einstufen, aber das rechtfertigt das ganze noch nicht. Natürlich hat die Autorin dieses Dilemma geregelt in dem sie die Protagonisten 18 Jahre alt gemacht hat. Somit handelt es sich nicht um minderjährige, aber richtig macht es das ganze trotzdem nicht. Da ich aber in deren Alter bin werde ich das wohl übersehen aber seit gewarnt.
Wo wir schon von Warnung sprechen, sexuelle Belästigung ist ein GROSSES Thema, also wer dies nicht lesen will sollte vielleicht was anderes Lesen. Das selbe gilt auch häusliche Gewalt und Suizid (Suizid eines Verwandten) mit diesen Trigger warnings ist nicht zu scherzen.
