A review by dreaaaaaaaaaaaaah
If He Had Been with Me by Laura Nowlin

2.0

  • What a rollercoaster of a book...wow
  • I knew what happened before it happened but the author knew what she was doing distracting me like that
  • I still managed a gasp at the end so...
  • I wish their so called love story was better thought out. I spent more time being mad at Jamie than thinking Finny was the right one for her
  • I really hate how authentic it was
  • Very vague ending
  • I like how complicated she is and how the ending doesn't resolve it because it in real life most people die being complicated
  • To me, it wasn't really a love story
  • The plot was so plotty and by that I mean no sense of direction at all but I think it was intentional
  • I didn't like any of the characters. I sympathized with them but I liked none of them
  • For some weird reason I think that 'plot twist ' was meant to keep us from regarding the book as a whole
  • Didn't work for me
