Reviews with content warning for Medical content - Te Daría El Sol

I read this book to come out of a reading slump and oh boi, did it help. I think I knew what I was getting into when I started it - turns out I was wrong, luckily I guess. It seems like a love story at first and it is, but not how you‘d imagine it to be. While the romantic relationships play an important part for the plot and are very well done but actually it is about the love between twins who lose and find each other several times over the years. It’s got some great life lessons, inspirations and is generally a very well rounded , enjoyable story.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHGH I CANNOT PUT MY LOVE FOR THIS BOOK INTO WORDS. I’m literally using every little neuron in my brain right now to type out these stupid sentences. These characters are so alive, I feel like I know and love them like a bestfriend. It’s like we’ve laughed and cried together and sending them off when I finished this book just crushed me. I wish I could read this forever, embed myself in the pages. I wish I could create art like this -writing or painting- but that means I haven’t learned shit from reading this. It doesn’t matter if I’m good, it doesn’t matter if I’m shit. I’m probably both at once. In the beginning I was so attached to Noah, I felt that he and I were too similar, then comes along Jude and it’s that same feeling a second time. Never have I felt like this twice in one book. It’s a quarter to one and I’m having a full blown crisis. Usually I assign a song to every book I finish but I don’t know anything that’ll sum up this experience (I STAND CORRECTED LOL)

Song:

Lost It to Trying - Son Lux
this is me trying - Taylor Swift

DNF review: The writing style isn't for me and I was bored, confused and honestly kind of annoyed for the whole 67 that I read.

2° opportunity and finished review:
This book was really hard to get into- the writing is very metaphoric and? at the same time, kind of childish/immature and I honestly didn't knew what was happening in the first 100 pages or so. Some situations also didn't make much sense considering the character's age. The chapters were SO LONG and maybe it was too slow-paced for me. However, these characters are vibrant- they have so much life, personality and depth. The story is good (with some ups and downs), but it's definitely the characters that stand out in this book. I was also very satisfied with the ending, which definitely played a big part on my overall positive review.
