this was the longest wattpad story i’ve ever read, but honestly, it was the best. holy cow i can’t describe how beautiful and tragic this was. luca and ria made me sob over and over and over again but i couldn’t help but love them. wow. i’m so sad it’s over.

i loved this story with every ounce of my being. just wow.

not me comparing everything i read to this book now… it was just that GOOD!!

DNF. i want to finish this so badly because it seems like something i will really enjoy but it’s taking me forever to get through and i’m not even that far in. they’ve also already started to fall for one another and for people who i expected to be emotionally unavailable, it feels insta-lovey to me. i might come back to this one day.

no one can tell me this book shouldn't be published. she seriously needs to do something with the talent she has. This book and the others in the series were great. the first book (insominiacs) is so well written, you can feel the pain of the characters behind it. ria is popular, but it's great that she wasn't a "mean girl", but kind to her fellow man. luca and ria their dynamic is exactly what I thought it would be like when I saw their pintrest boards. they can find themselves in each other and that is so beautiful to see. I'm so glad I read this book and wish I could read it again for the first time. the other books are also the best I have ever read, it is so nice to see old characters back in the book and see how they are doing. personally my favorite book was rivals it's amazing and you should definitely get your books out. please do something with your talent

i still can’t believe this is a wattpad story. i’ve reread this twice now, along with the following two books, and they literally don’t get old. i wish misfits was on gr bc that book deserves to get my 5 stars.

This is hands down the best book on Wattpad. Insomniacs kicks off an incredible trilogy, followed by Misfits and Rivals, and honestly, I’m obsessed. The found family vibe? Perfection. The tension and relationships building? Pure perfection—slow, intense, and heart-wrenching in the best way. (Good choice of words btw..) This is exactly the vibe I’m always chasing in books—emotional connections that make you feel everything. These characters have set up camp in my heart, and I don’t think they’re leaving anytime soon.

And can we talk about the writing? It’s so well done. The talent here is next-level, honestly beyond words.

And the men—oh boy, they are menn-ing like no other. They’re strong, hilarious, and, let’s be real, ridiculously good-looking (In my head). I could write sonnets about how much I love them, but words just don’t do them justice.

If you want to feel all the feels, laugh, and maybe fall in love with fictional characters, this is your book, trust me. Lina is gonna have a huge career as an author. I manifest it for her.

OH MY GOSHHH THIS IS PERFECT. IM SO ADDICTED TO THIS BOOK, THIS FRIEND GROUP FAMILY, LUCA AND ARIA LITERALLY EVERYTHING. When I first saw this I did not expect to like it THIS much . All I have to say is Luca Hernandez and kai azer and literally the same person😍😍🤤🤤 like when I saw Luca I was like that’s dada omg. It’s so poetic and it’s just so amazing and beautiful and ughh omg. Luca and aria are so perfect for each other like they’ve been through so much and they helped each other live again💔💔 I’m sick. Everything up until their first meeting to the paper clip engagement in New York was so amazing. EXCEPT FOR THE PART LUCA DIED THEN GOT SAVED AND DECIDED TO SUFFER ALONE??THAT WAS SO FUCKING DUMB I GET HE DIDN’T WANNA BURDEN THE PEOPLE HE LOVED WITH WATCHING HIM DIE BUT STILL IT LEFT THEM MORE CONFUSED AND WITH 0 CLOSURE UNTIL HE CAME BACK. The thing with this book was I felt that these characters loved each other SO MUCH that it felt like a personal loss when Luca did what he did. As soon as I found out he was in stage 4 heart failure I literally dreaded the moment aria found out and when she did, I literally felt my own heart hurt I COUKD FEEL HER SADNESS IN EVERY PART OF MY BONES. When I read the letters Luca wrote and when ria said “will I have to look for u in the stars as-well” I WAS GENUINELY UNWELL. My favourite Luca moments were when they shared that cigarette in the lavender field on Lucas birthday, THEIR FIRST KISS ON THE BEACH WAS LITERALLY SO CINEMATIC OMG BRO AND LITERALLY EVERY TIME THEY INTERACTED. THEY ARE THE DEFINITION OF SOULMATES. STUMBLING UPON EACH OTHER WHEN THEY WERE 8, THINKING OF EACH OTHER CONSTANTLY AND FALLING INLOVE 11 YEARS LATER?WHAT ARE THE CHANCES. And can we just appreciate how GOOD of a friend Everest is like I LOVE HIM SM AND IM SO EXCITED FOR HIS BOOK. AND CAN MAKE SOME MORE NOISE FOR HUDSON. like he stayed with Luca the WHOLE time and didn’t break his promise whatsoever. And he has tattoos, blue eyes, and a motorbike 🤤 I’m especially excited for his and vals book cuz that’s dada. I’m so invested in this series and u should’ve seen my shock when I saw MIGUEL had a book? IM PLEASANTLY SURPRISED THO CUZ MIGUEL IS LIKE S MINI LUCA. They were all so funny, everyone is so fine and I’m just genuinely so excited to keep reading in this world cuz every character is crafted for each other so perfectly I genuinely love it. I wish it was more popular on tik tok so I could repost edits of it. I just want what ria has so bad : her friends and someone like luca💔 they’re just so perfect. I would wake up happy everyday if I had people like that in my life. And anyway can we talk abt RIAS MOM AND FUCKJNG ENRICO?? THAT PRICKLET OMG HOW DARE HE SLAP RIA AND THEN ABUSE HIS MOM IN SECRET. I hated her mom so much because of how she didn’t react when Ria got hurt and had apparently been in contact with him rias entire life, but at the end when I found out she might’ve been getting hurt by enrico it was such mixed feelings. Anyways I thoroughly enjoyed this book, I love all the characters, I’m shaking in excitement to read Everest AND HUDSONS books😍, I love Val, I love everyone and Luca LITERALLY IS THE STANDARD BRO. HES EVERYTHING.

No words can explain how much love i have for this book. Insomniacs shows you that even after people go through so much you are still deserving of love and you can accomplish so much. Ria and Lu's story will forever have a special place in my heart. Them going through so much in their life but still being able to find each other again(if you know what i mean ;)) is amazing to me. The fact that they can be completly transparent with each other and how much they love each other is simply amazing. The book was insanely well written, you could feel the emotions of every character.The author, Lina, you are an incredible writer and i can't wait to read more of your books.
Ria and Lu forever my loves <3

I missed my wattpad days, so I went back and found this as a recommendation. I didn’t finish this but I’ve been reading this for 4 days straight and it doesn’t want to end, it’s too long, I’ll read more of it throughout my life maybe but right now I’ve seen enough. Tbh it was cringy and nonsensical but that’s exactly what I came here for. It brought me back all the lores I don’t see in books anymore, the chaotic friend groups, the shy room visits, the parents issues, the fights, the drama, the cafés, the high school parties, the car rides. C’était grv gênant mais en vrai cv pour wattpad y’avait de l’effort c’était kiki.

love love love loveeeee. honestly my favorite series ever. i would kill for this series to be actual books. i would say rivals was my absolute favorite out of all the three. hud and val💋🤌🏼 (chef's kiss). i've first read this last year and i still can't stop thinking about it.

[Tindra Salaris · Rating 5 out of 5]

I honestly think the author should be publiced. This is a good, honest and raw love story but also a struggle between mind and self. I think it’s beautiful and definitely worth reading both the book and the series

♾️/5 ⭐️ screaming crying throwing up that book is the definition of an emotional rollercoaster and all these characters will always have a special place in my heart.

Amazing plot development and romance bond. The book drags on at certain parts and is entirely unrealistic. I loved it despite all of the above.

would love to finish this it’s genuinely better than so many published romance books i’ve read/encountered
buuut i’d prefer to prioritize spending my reading time on ‘actual’ published books 😣😣
anyway find me back here when the author gets published trust

read thru even more of it and then just started skimming i don’t think the vibes of this book/the characters are quite my fav of the series. i don’t wanna waste my time fully reading 1000 pages more of this when ik i would rather read 1000 pages of the other books and characters
