I’m trying…. But the pacing is so slow…painful reading.

Loving the book, but it's nothing like the movie....

25% through and this book is still written entirely in third person - and I feel like I’m reading an exceptionally long fairytale. My brain is itching for at least one character to take charge and claim some of her own thoughts and feelings, to show that she is real!

The whole book has been in third-person up to this point, and it’s not engaging, despite the character backgrounds building up nicely. I keep wondering, are we ever going to hear from the main characters in first person?

I love this book.

Why doesn’t this book have chapters

INCREDIBLE. so descriptive compared to the movie!

ughhhhhhh i'm not enjoying this so far. it reads a bit like a script, but i'm determined to finish it!

Oooof

I have big feelings about Gillian, and Sally, and Kylie and Antonia. Intriguing.

Currently re-reading this favorite for a “traveling annotations” read with girlfriends.

One of the best movies ever and I fear I still enjoy the film more but I’m half way through so let’s see…maybe I’ll eat my words

Wft is this writing? Why does everyone keep crying at random things 💀

This writing is so annoying…

Why is this written so weirdly?

I watched the movie a long time ago with my mom, and I figured this would be the best time to read this. And also to get a start on my physical tbr

Book 1 of 2025

Very much considering not finishing. One thing I like about books is dialogue…there hasn’t been any so far, I’m 60 pages in

The book has an opening ending with Sally and Gary reuniting and dating.

Struggling to get through this one....none of the characters are likeable and the story is hard to follow.
