Didn't build the relationship enough, described the relationship but didnt let you feel it. Spent too much time describing their kisses and their sadness. Too too too many time jumps. Kind of overly religious. EPILOGUE SUCKED! Disappointing

Cry count: 19.
This book reminds me of a fanfiction that I would’ve read in middle school, but in the best way possible. The simple language and the romance is what reminds me of it, but this is such a sweet story. The bad-boy comments made me cringe, but the sweetness of the rest of the book outweighs it.
This is a YA book, but I—a 24 year old woman—enjoyed this thoroughly and cried a good amount.
And the epilogue… oh man. Didn’t quite expect that, though it isn’t unpredictable. Good stuff.

I enjoyed this book a lot. It didn’t take me long to finish. I read it a lot quicker than I anticipated. The story itself is beautiful, heartbreaking, and enjoyable to read. However, it lost points in the rating because as enjoyable and beautiful a story it was, it was also cringey beyond belief. Some of the things said by the two main characters were just so crazy to me. I’m all for deep, passionate, and beautiful love. But there are lines where it turns from beautiful to cringey and over the top. It also lost points for the INCREDIBLY long chapters. However, still an amazing yet gut-wrenching read.

I physically couldn’t because my mom died of cancer. I have cried this entire book. It’s so good but I am so sad and only made it 70 pages literally. Be prepared to cry and cry and cry.

“Well I have it on good authority that she wants a little more bad boy in her life”
I feel like this quote alone is enough for everyone to understand how cringe this book was. You’ll hear “baby” over a million times & it just feels so unauthentic for teenagers. I almost added it to my DNF list but I couldn’t bear to ruin my book streak lmao. I also listened to the audiobook and I must warn you to never ever listen to that. I had to listen to 4 different accents for 2 characters. 🙃
