Me encantó este libro, cuando empezaba a leer no quería parar. 
Es el segundo que leo de esta autora, y por ahora mi favorito.
Los personajes son interesantes y la narración en forma de entrevista da mucho juego, hace que la historia no tenga un solo narrador aunque haya dos claros protagonistas. Me gustaron mucho los momentos en los que contaban algo y el siguiente en hablar lo recordaba de forma distinta, era gracioso y realista, y también ayudaba a definir la personalidad del que hablaba.
La historia de 10, todo muy intenso y emocionante.

Spoiler

Aunque la duración del grupo fue corta, estaba todo tan bien hilado para llevarlo a su fin, que me encantó un final tan repentino pero a la vez natural.

 
En general todos los personajes están muy bien escritos. Me gustó mucho Daisy, pero Billy me gustó aún más, su parte de la historia me parecía más interesante, con más matices. 
Es un libro que me ha encantado de principio a fin, y seguro que lo volveré a leer.

great book, currently in the middle of the series, but the book definitely wins out of the two. i love the show’s representation of the vibe of the book, but the added plot definitely wasn’t my favorite. i feel like i perceive every character a little differently based on the things they do on the show.

Spoiler

camilla getting with eddie(maybe? i get him, pete, and warren confused) was very out of character for her, karen and graham telling the guys they were together instead of always keeping it secret, and the kiss between billie & daisy?? those little details change everything! also, i noticed camilla’s condition during the interviews immediately, i watching with my fiancé who didn’t read the book, & i can’t wait til he finds out.

and again, i haven’t finished the show yet, but wow. can’t wait to see how they plan on finishing it i guess! the book is magnificent.

at  the beggining i was like "wowwww lets go  rock and roll" but then i was like "this   pretentious  people can never shut up" like yes i know this is a interview but still ... i was so annoyed with everyone...

Camila, Daisy and Karen deserve waaaayyyyy better.......


Hoping that the series is better tho
