I was prepared to hate the book after skimming some recent goodreads reviews, but I LOVED it. I'm a sucker for that Edward Cullen-esque unhealthy, obsessive, unrealistic kind of romance and I was not disappointed. It had enough twists and turns to keep you guessing too.

My visuals:
Matt Shadows as Travis & Phoebe Tonkin as Abby
Amber Heard as America & Cam Gigandet as Shepley
It was coincidence at first, but I realized Cam & Amber have been in the same movie, with fighting the same as the content in the book!
Okay, It's been a good while after I read this book but I'm still trying to satiate my Beautiful Disaster hunger. What can I say, the book left me wanting for more.. so, so much more! Not to s ...more

Travis Maddox.... what can I say? You make my heart melt.
"I know we're fucked up, all right? I'm impulsive and hot-tempered, and you get under my skin like no one else. You act like you hate me one minute, and then you need me the next. I never get anything right, and I don't deserve you...but I fucking love you, Abby. I love you more than I've loved anyone or anything, ever. When you're around, I don't need booze or money or the fighting or the one-night stands...all I need is you. You're all ...more

Originally read in April 2012. I loved it just as much the second time around!
**EDIT**
As the days have passed since I finished this book, curiously I found myself going back to my favourite parts off and on...shall I chalk this up to being a guilty pleasure? Perhaps, it's come to really grow on me!

HOLY awesomeness. Not all relationships are butterflies and unicorns. Who are we kidding, those really only exist in books. This was an EXTREMELY refreshing and REAL read. I am officially putting this book on my favorites list and I think this author has found a new fan. I couldn't put this book down and LOVED this story with all of my heart. Tears, laughs, and a sleepless night. If you are considering this book, just buy it. However, if you are looking for a book about butterflies and unicorns

Beautiful Disaster...that's exactly what this book is! Jamie McGuire you are a genius... I want to BE Abby! I want someone to be totally and completely willing to do whatever it takes. I want the heat and the passion...I want to know that! This book is the closest I could get and I was over the moon about it. If you haven't read it....well you're missing out!
