So captivating and eye opening. I’ve learned so much and I’m barely a quarter through it.

This book has me hooked right off the bat. Every example he’s presented is so eye opening. There are so many times throughout my day where I shame myself for things without even realizing it. I cannot wait to read more and learn how to stop doing that.

I feel like she’s starting to understand the characters voices a little better now, but it’s still awkward very often. I’m really getting into the story now. I’m enjoying the flashback chapters. I think those are where Abbie’s writing is strongest. Either that or I’m just really connecting to the character. Either way, that’s good!

So far, it reads well, but sounds highly unnatural. The characters don’t sound like themselves, but rather what the writer thinks they should sound like. For example, Tessa’s internal monologue doesn’t present as the internal monologue of a teenage girl in the modern day. Instead, her internal monologue sounds like an old southern woman living in the 1940s. Curious to see how the story will shape up overall.

It’s fun so far. I’m intrigued by the mystery, and the passion is a nice bonus per the usual with Max Walker :)

I love these characters so much. Adam Silvera does a fantastic job of making you fall in love with characters even if you already know they’re destined to die. It’s so bittersweet.

Obsessed. I loved the first book and I’m loving this one. It’s 1:18am and I’m currently forcing myself to put it down so I can get some sleep.

It’s so good! Frustrating, cute, stressful, exciting. A little of every emotion.

It’s okay. It hasn’t gotten much better. I’ll definitely finish it, but I don’t love it.

It’s pretty good so far. Not overly fascinating, but a good time killer. My curiosity is growing over the mystery though so perhaps it’ll draw me in more as it progresses.

Feeling a little lost. Like things are being described to me, but I’m not sure what the point is yet.

I started this book this morning and I’ve already read through 71% of it. I think that explains just how much I’m enjoying it. Honestly, I’m disappointed that I need to sleep. I’d rather stay up all night and finish it. There’s always tomorrow.

It’s starting off really good! I’m hooked. Can’t wait to see how this all plays out with Caio.

The first chapter was so captivating. It’s truly an eye opener in so many ways.

I love how Rufus and Mateo have truly distinct personalities and ways of speaking. When each character is narrating, it actually feels like different people. That being said, I’m not a big fan of how this story is being told. The constant perspective switching and randomly jumping into side character perspectives is a little jarring. I’m fascinated by Rufus and Mateo though, so I’ll keep reading.

It’s cute! Some fairly basic writing and a few expected moments, but a good fun read. Great to just relax and distract myself from life, which is all you really need sometimes.

Pretty interesting so far. It doesn’t feel like groundbreaking information, but I enjoy how it’s presented. This theory feels like one of those things that are just blatantly obvious, but so many of us miss it. This is a good reminder to slow down and let go.
