Lately but Finished reading..Damnn.. the ending made me happier with lil bit of teary eyes..🙂.. I thought there wouldn't be an happy ending, but at last, those half way tickets for both had finally become a complete one! Just wondering about the real life...Will the awaiting times, unrevealed feelings be able to bring two ppl together in real life as well just like had happened in this book...? Not that easy isn't... :') **SmileWithTears**🙂 Name of the book: Never A Perfect Moment

Η Polly είναι από τους αγαπημένους μου χαρακτήρες σειρές και το να διαβάζω τη δική της οπτική είναι αν μη τι άλλο ευχάριστο. Σίγουρα πιο ενδιαφέρον και καλοδουλεμένο βιβλίο από τα προηγούμενα, παραμένοντας ρεαλιστικό και γήινο, χωρίς να είναι υπερβολικά μελοδραματικό.

Its a one night reading novel, reads very fast, cos of font and narrow pages.
The story is about a bunch of friends from whom as it turns out one had accidentally died 10 days ago jumping off the cliff. That is a fact but the story is more focused on main characters wish to date a star from college football team, and shes not really that bothered about the death..as you have to live you day and you live only once..There are ups and downs in the friendship she has with the rest of friends.

I couldn't feel more wasting time and reading this, felt extremely stupid dialogs and i didn't understood main character.

I don't know how this book got 4.1 ratings cause it was very bad. Like, those teenagers' whole life depends on who they're currently dating or their ex, which is actually realistic a little but writing a book only about it? Like, if you are going to do that just write it better. I didn't even finish it cause it was SO BAD!!!

Really enjoyed this, it wasn't my favourite but I do like pollys character, bringing polly and Ollie together and him saying hes loved her for a long time kind of made him and Lila abit pointless really

A very interesting book from Polly's perspective. Cathy is a talented author who encourages children and young adults to read as they will enjoy it. To all those people out there who haven't read this book;I suggest you should. You don't need to read the books in order-which is an advantage-as I definitely recommend it!

This was a pleasant read. Polly is definitely my favourite character in this series so it was nice to see things from her perspective again.
This is a nice enough series that tackles real issues without being overly dramatic.
