Don't expect me to take your manipulative, asshole, guy character seriously if you have him saying dumb shit like "Nooo don't put the lotion on me, it's pink!!!"

At that point, I don't see him as an actual person; I see him as a cartoon character.

NOOOO WAYYYYY this book has two "not like other girls" lines in it

HOWWWWW am I supposed to take this romance in a meaningful way when she keeps calling her a bitch??? 😭

who tf would start beaming after being called "multifaceted"

"'Don't poke the bear Coley,' she warns.

'Rawr.' I scrunch my hands up into little claws and paw the air"

THERE'S 250 PAGES LEFT OF THIS BOOK

"Nothing ever changes in small towns. Until it does."

the writing in this is killing me lowkey 😭

"What about a pen?"

"A pen?"

"Yeah. you know, a writing implement? What those in ancient times used to write with, before cell phones and computers?"

This book takes place in 2006.

Personally, I would choose not to hang out with the people that nearly ran me over.

I'm a lot more excited to read this book after listening to the song like 20 times 😭

"That is the legacy I want for you, not to be the girl that loves too much, but to be the girl who is loved more than enough."

☹️☹️☹️☹️☹️

Oh. My. GODDDDDDDD.

"she up and donated a piece of liver to her bestie"

a completely normal thing to say in a therapist's office.

WHY DOES SOMEONE HAVE TO CRY IN NEARLY EVERY CHAPTER??

"But a life spent waiting is not a life spent loving. It's a life spent wasting away on the promise of something you're not guaranteed."

"But sometimes, when you've known someone for years and they build up this image of you, it's hard to talk about things that mess with that image. It feels like you'd be breaking some bond of trust between you and that person by being different than you were before. I don't just mean subtle, slow changes. I mean, like, the big things that they never saw coming."

"'I nearly broke his bones,' Meghan says cheerfully."

??????

Point blank, the landlord should not have been written in this book. It would be so much better off without him. He adds NOTHING.

If high school taught me anything, it's that big friend groups ALWAYS fall apart and diminish, one way or another.

This is bound to not go well. 😭

"But as I head upstairs to get ready for bed, I wonder if he actually feels better or just decided he has to pretend to be." ☹️

LOOOOOVE the spanish/english integration throughout the dialogue between Ophelia and her parents!!!

sammie you disgust me

Okay, so the cover of this book has a woman that looks like me except she has bangs. PLEEEASE BE GOOD

"some girls don't get some things"

they keep repeating this line, but i don't like it 😭

nearly halfway through this book, and so far I'm thinking it should be titled 1 time we almost kissed

chapter 14 is SO raw. the sheer hysteria is captured so well

BUDDY READ WITH THE LOML AMY!! <33

ALSO loved the part where Amelia is coming to terms with the idea of change.

How can you possibly have an opinion on change, especially on a large scale, without ever having experienced something like that for yourself?

THE SIMON AND GARFUNKEL FORESHADOWING
