I watched the show based on this book and loved it, so I had to grab the book. There are so many differences between the two, there are whole plot lines in the show that don’t even exist in the book. And so many little details were changed, I’m sure there are reasons why the changes were made, but I loved Ray so much in the show and he hardly speaks in the book.

4.25

 This was a re-read (albeit, I read it many years ago) and was still completely shocked by every twist and excited by every turn. Lauren Oliver has this amazing talent for writing believable teenagers using sophisticated language that really validates their experiences in a way that is much needed in the YA genre. This book is a wild ride that I have had such fun revisiting. No complaints.

For a further discussion of my thoughts, check out the next episode of my podcast: Books without Borders. https://anchor.fm/books-wo-borders

My scoring: 
5.00 | = everyone in the world must read this book 
4.75 | = between 4.5 and 5
4.50 | = dessert island book
4.25 | = between 4 and 4.5
4.00 | = great, solid, recommendable book
3.75 | = almost a 4, but not quite 
3.50 | = not a 4, but I had a good time
3.25 | = rough patches, but not bad
3.00 | = meh, read-able but nothing to write home about
2.75 | = between a 2.5 and 3
2.50 | = there’s something I liked here but it wasn’t enough to be good 
2.25 | = between a 2 and 2.5
2.00 | = not good and there was nothing I liked 
1.00 | = bad
