SECOND BEST BOOK IVE READ THIS YEAR. Wow. And I doubt that it will ever get moved down!! 

The story was AMAZING. So compelling. I cried twice. I loved the writing so much!! I think the romance was also done exceptionally well!! The buildup was perfect and both Ruben and Zach were both such well written characters and their individual faults were so realistic! 
Another round of applause for the side characters!! Usually I struggle to remember the side characters in books, especially if there are many but not these characters!! Even the ones that I despised were memorable and they all contributed to the plot in meaningful ways. 
Overall 10/10!! Can’t think of any major issues I had with it. Only request would be to
expand on Angel and Jon some more!! I loved them I needed to see even more. I want to find out how Angel deals with staying sober and how Jon ends up dealing with his dad and everything!!
 
Honestly can see this book having a sequel and while I don’t believe that will happen, it’s pretty unrealistic, I CAN STILL DREAM!!

 “Once you've learned shame, it settles into your skin like a tattoo. You can cover it up, but you can't scrub off the sense of inadequacy.” 

When I brought this book I didn't know what to expect. I saw it in the shelves of my local bookstore and the tittle caught my attention. Upon reading the summary, I decided to buy it because it seemed like something that I would like. 

And I was right! I really like it! Look, the way that the story is structured, I can see why people may think that this is a somewhat one direction fanfic turned book. There isn't anything that tells me that one direction (and the fan theories about some members of the band having a secret relationship) were an inspiration to the book but comparisons can be made. Nonetheless, lets review the book by what it is and not what could be. And I liked it! Its cute, heartwarming and has fluff, just the sorta of thing that I was looking to read at the time that I started this book. 

So, I would recommend it if you want to read something sweet, light and cute.

Objectively, it’s a good book. And Ii enjoyed listening to it. For me, this book was more serious than what I was looking for. The toxic mother and managers not for me.

An amazing book! It was a bit slow in the start but just sticking to it and giving it a chance really pulled me in

I would’ve liked another chapter or two  at the end to see how things went though

Good read! I liked the characters and the main relationship. I think it tackled good themes in good ways. The end was believable and not overly idealistic. I wish there was actual smut, but ah well
