ENG/ESP BELOW
I know that it’s expressed a million times that this story takes place in college with 21-year-olds but I feel like it’s written from a very high-school pov, with things that teenagers do/say, and it lacks the maturity of college, both in speech and in actions.  It’s entertaining tho and it touches really deep things, but I feel like it’s not original and the writing just adds to the weird mix. I recommend it if you’re just reading for the funsies and to pass the time, but if you want a proper story with more mature characters this isn’t your book.

Sé que durante el libro se dice miles de veces que la historia sucede en una universidad con personajes de 21 años aprox pero sentí que está escrito desde una perspectiva muy de secundaria, con cosas que harían/dirían adolescentes, y que no tiene esa madurez que te da la edad y la universidad, tanto en diálogos como en acciones. Lo encontré entretenido y toca algunos temas fuertes, pero sentí que la historia no es muy original, sumándole lo de la perspectiva en la que está escrito. Lo recomiendo si estás leyendo para pasar el rato o por aburrimiento, pero si queres una mejor historia con personajes que transmiten la edad en la que la autora los describe, este no es tu libro.

It’s a guilty pleasure. They’re both hot and their romance is the cutest thing ever.
