"Do not ruin the moment," Daniel mutters [...]
Awww this is just too cuuute !! * sorry for freaking out *
Oh and by the way I do not know Whether to give the book 3 or 3.5 stars ...!: /
So I gave it 3 on stars and ... 3 is my actual rating, too. Thinking back to it this fits just great.
As already Mentioned at the beginning, this is a bad boy story. I know After Reading A Few it gets boring Because it's cliché, but since my first They Vary. They may have the same structure somehow, but the characters are different, just as the setting. Most of the quiet are in high school, have a best friend and the girls do not like the boys. But only at first. Then They get to know him, fall in love with him but will not admit it and so on. You get in. ;-) Oh and so it happens did the boy or his parents are rich or he is a troubled kid somehow. Or both.
In this story, we have a straight-A student named Ellie (Elizabeth), who Decides to make her last year of high school the best. She watched a movie about a bucket list and Decided to do one herself, so she makes one up. Click here to read it. (You probably have to be logged in or signed up to read this.)
She has some easier ones and some harder ones on there and I may have to add That only her dad and her best friend know about it.
One of her Dares, HOWEVER or you want to call it, is to be a Peer Support Leader. And who is her 'case'? The boy no one Could change before her, The Boy Who treatens other and Especially younger ones like sh * t and even beats some up if he is provoked.
As the story goes on we find ourself in the schoolyard with Ellie who watches Daniel, The boy / guy, who has to tidy the yard from rubbish. At sometime she gets bored by it, takes out her bucket list and reads through it again. Bam Bam bam. Daniel snatches it from her hands and reads it. He Was not Supposed To! When he is finished he Suggests a deal she can not deny. That's the beginning of ******* !!! (Do not count the stars I just tipped some in.)
This story ... there were so many details in there, I already forgot many of them. It's Basically about Ellie, Daniel and The Bucket List. She wants to finish it until graduation.
There are sad stories family, swoon-worthy romantic scenes, teasing comments and the climax. Or maybe there are more then just one ..? Hmm ...
Either way it was a great story and I really enjoyed this! I could not lay my phone down and did not want to stop. I loved it !!

I always loved doing lists for everything that I wanted to do.
That's one of the reasons that I started reading this book.
I liked of how the characters grew emotionally in the story.
I literally couldn't stop reading and I was happy for how all ended.
I would be happy to read more books from this author.

2.5*

Avendolo letto su Wattpad mi aspettavo errori di dicitura o grammaticali, ma a parte questo, la storia è molto carina. Avrebbe sicuramente bisogno di un editing, anche perché molti pensieri di Ellie si ripetono due volte.
Avrei voluto anche che la scrittrice approfondisse un po' di più il personaggio di Daniel. Attraverso il racconto di Ellie sappiamo che è una testa calda e che prova molta rabbia ma alla fine non ce ne viene mai spiegato il motivo, peccato.
Comunque è un libro carino da leggere velocemente.

I would say 3.5* for this one.
It was a really beautiful story. What didn't do it for me was the continuity errors, the grammar mistakes, the spelling, the whole editing thing. I had to actually look twice at many paragraphs to just understand what it was it wanted to convey.
I understand that the book is getting through edits and it will be published again. I hope all of this is fixed because it was really a lovely clean story.
Recommend even to early tweens, from 12 yrs up. Does not contain any profanity, or sex or dark themes.

5/5 - I rate how I rated the book when I first read it!
I remember this book had me in tears at one point. The bad boy mc helps the helpless fc complete her bucket list- what a gentleman. I remember really loving this book, and that it was a great read with a great story.
Now a review from 16 year old me: This book has everyone GAGGED. I am making bucket lists and wishing myself a bad boy to help me complete it. A girl could dream.

It was fine I guess....It started very well and then towards the end it stared getting cheesy and typical...but I enjoyed reading it.I wouldn't say I really liked it but it was something different from those average wattpad books! Maybe this deserves to get published...

I read this book on Wattpad back in 2015 and I haven't read it since so I don't exactly remember what this book is about to be 100% honest. However I do remember staying up until 2:30 in the morning to finish it because I loved it so much and I believe this was back in middle school, so staying up late back then was rare because all I did was sleep.
That being said I think I really did enjoy this book and I thought about giving it 3-stars instead of 4 because I'm thinking 'If you can't remember what the book was about it probably wasn't even that great' but I think I'll keep it at 4-stars because at the time I DID read the book I was just starting to get into reading and I remember loving it so 4-stars it is.

I NEVER give a book 5 stars, but I think this one deserved it. I just... I was a mess while reading this!
The feels, oh gosh it was just, I had to stop at some point because of extreme fangirling! Yes, it was that bad.
This book is an extremely cute and an interesting teen-fiction, romance and humor (for me) book, and... JUST READ IT!!
PEACE LOVE

Too much back and forth. Also characters acting childishly according to their ages, and so naïve.
The idea wasn't that strong.
misspelled and unwritten words.
Weak language.
Not what I expected from a watty's winner award and 14M reads...

It was okay, not one of the best but still very good. Some nights I would stay up until 2:30 a.m. just to finish a chapter. It was very cliche but I was prepared for that when I started reading it. I think A LOT of people should read it. :)

I like the fact that she made the bucket list of the things that she was scared to do.
