Has the power to make you laugh out loud, then bring you to tears on the very next page.
Kelby Guilfoyle’s ‘Bloomers’ is a pure, honest story about first loves, depression and how beautiful & messed up the world can be all at the same time.
The relationship that develops between Harper and Flow throughout is so moving and nuanced that you’ll feel like you’re right there with them, then miss them as soon as you reach that final page.
The book manages to be both hopeful and heartbreaking, a must read.

so i re-read, it took me a day since its a very short book, it was ok but the metaphors werent that clear, it really blurred the lines between horror and contemperary, but i didnt like the time lines, becasues it moved from back and forth, also how the dual pov, werent written very well, because i couldnt decifer who was talking. unless they mentioned it. there was one point where it wasnt even the main characters anymore, it was a girl. but for the most part i was confused, the writing was ok.
but i say if you wanna read it, i say go for it.
