Had to read this for school. A touching and emotional story that made me think about life. Planning on watching the movie soon to jog my memory.

This book is like an early teens, gut-wrenching love story that made me hate love stories. Not because it's bad, but because it makes you see that love hurts. Love isn't fair. Love doesn't always get to stay.

Made me see that maybe I like reading about happily ever afters since real life isn't like that. This book is real life, and it broke me.
