‘Sometimes it’s like people are a million times more beautiful to you in your mind. It’s like you see them through a special lens — but maybe if it’s how you see them, that’s how they really are. It’s like the whole tree falling in the forest thing.’

I love Jenny Han, but this definitely isn't her best work. I was obsessed with these books when I was younger, don't get me wrong, so this got a point for the nostalgia, but rereading them now, I can definitely see a lot more issues.

Belly is one of the most annoying main characters. She is so incredibly self-centred, even at the end of the book when we find out about (view spoiler), she makes it all about her feelings.

Fue una lectura ligera pero a mi parecer fue algo aburrida. En lo personal, no sentí química entre Conrad y Belly, o sea, no entiendo en qué momento fue que Conrad se enamoró de Belly porque nunca percibí esa vibra entre ellos. Las partes de la relación entre Belly y Cam me dieron igual.
Aún así soy team Conrad.
