This book was genuinely a masterpiece. I would say it was more of a slower book but the emotion and storyline was amazing.

The way that finny (phineas) was portrayed and made into such a loving caring character was the most heartwarming effect of the story.

Such a sad book but a beautiful love story. Definitely read this if you want a good cry. But be warned, you will be so depressed every time you think about this story.

 I really enjoyed this book.

It was an easy and nice read, wasn't overfilled with unnecessary filler and the pacing was good. Giving a good and clear picture of what is happening in our main character's life, and her inner most feelings. It felt very true and real to how a teenager would feel.
