So beautiful.

This book was... Beautiful. No other word to describe.

The storyline is perfection, realistically introducing the love, not taking it too unbelievably fast.

The characters are beautifully wonderful. Park... Let's say I have a new book crush. I'm sorry-- he's like my dream guy!! And the eyeliner? *swoon* Same thing with Eleanor. You can't hate her.

And the end. ...more

I should have known I wasn't going to like this book.

At first, I couldn't remember why I didn't buy this book earlier; it was in the popular young adult novel section, and it received so many good reviews! But when I got home, I found the reason.

It changes point of view.

But I had to give it an honest try. And I really did try to like it. But I couldn't. The story is way too shallow, Eleanor annoyed the crap out of me, and the ending was disappointing.

This book did not impress me at all. Not reco ...more
