What's happening with this? Haha. I haven't yet read the next 5 chapters because we still haven't spoken about the first 5?

Should we read up to chapter 10 and then talk about it, when we maybe have a bit more to say?

[Christine]

I have absolutely no idea... Haven't really heard from Megan on her status - but sure, sounds good!

[Christine]

After almost a month I finally finished the book haha

[Quinn]

Haha, yeah. I finished it last week. What did you think of it?

[Christine]

I.... actually liked it a lot more than I thought I would. I'm not really big on chick lit, but yeah, I thought it was actually pretty good - 3 stars! You?

[Quinn]

I really enjoyed it to begin with, the day in Paris was lovely. Warm fuzzy's and that, haha. However, once she was a couple months into university I felt like Allyson became a little bit insufferable. (I get that she was heartbroken and the writing gave the feeling of time passing really slowly, I think I just got a bit bored at that point, haha). I remained bored up until pretty much the last page. I gave it 3 stars too.

I can't decide if I want to continue with the sequel. I believe it's the year from Willem's POV... Do you think you might read it?

[Christine]

Oh my God, I was like the complete opposite - sure I love Willem and they were cute and stuff but I absolutely loved the later chapters - I felt like it just made Allyson so, I don't know, real, relatable, whatever? And I thought she really grew as a character instead of being all lovestruck and heartbroken? lol

I don't know about the sequel either - like I sorta want to know what happens to the two, but I heard the sequel isn't so great.
