Twenty-One Truths about Love by Matthew Dicks
4.0
4.5 stars.
Wow. I was not expecting to like this book as much as I did. This book is told exclusively in list format, so I thought it’d be a quick read with little plot and depth. Boy was I wrong! Not only was there a substantial plot, this book was emotional, hysterical, and REAL. I laughed, I cried (sobbed), and I thought about things in a different way. I am truly floored by Mathew Dick’s ability to turn a series of lists into such a heartwarming story, and am touched that he is a teacher in real life. What a talent. The book was therapeutic for me, as the narrator deals with constantly comparing himself to others’ success, which is something I personally have a really hard time with. Would definitely recommend this to my fellow rom com lovers and those interested in a unique storytelling format.
