Will war edgy und es hatte genervt. Rosie war verwirrend und das hat umso mehr genervt. Deren Liebe war nicht wirklich überzeugend, schon gar nicht deren Gespräche. Es passierte so viel und wie eine Review schon meinte wurde es bis zum letzten Gramm gesqueezed weswegen sich das Buch so unglaublich in die Länge zog. Es war keine gute Lese Reise. Es war nervtötend. Ich wollte einfach nur dass es vorbei geht.

Overall, the book is a little slow to start, but I was glad I continued reading. The prose was beautiful, the characters were well fleshed-out, and their family dynamics were compelling, especially Will's relationship with his grandmother. The dialogue, as well as the characters' thoughts and emotions, felt realistic. However, some parts of the book verged on a little overdramatic, and it seemed like the author was trying to stuff as much tragedy and drama as possible into the story to advance the plot. For Will's and Rosie's sakes, I wish the book had focused more on how they worked towards healing individually and then grew together, as opposed to relying on their love for each other to magically fix everything, but that probably wouldn't sell as many copies!
