I wanted to like this book and I wanted to hate this book. I wanted to finish this book and I wanted to keep reading it forever. It was a really sweet book, and I could identify with both Eleanor and Park. Though that ending made me want to tear it apart and cry. Please, someone tell me that they're going to meet again!!!!

this book proved that it is possible to like and curse a book at the same time. oh my, this weird feeling.
the characters and the ending are too realistic it hurts. eleanor is smart which make it hurts more. but i like the writer for keeping it all realistic.

Loved this book! I listened to the audio version of this book. I enjoyed that it took place in the past and could very well be a true story. I hated everything Eleanor was going through with her family and I hate knowing their are kids that go through this every day. Highly recommend if you enjoy realistic fiction/a love story
