I know romances require quite a bit of suspension of disbelief for you to fully enjoy them but I honestly wish it required less... like how are you so broke but still can afford two plane tickets and a whole month worth of vacation??? Are traveling expenses that cheap in the USA?

Eu não consigo acreditar que estou quase acabando. Esse livro está sendo uma das minhas piores experiências de leitura dos últimos anos.

Esse livro é esnobe, pretensioso, superestimado. Não sei como uma obra tão tosca, rasa e mal escrita ganhou tantos prêmios.

Sem os adjetivos e as metaforas esse livro teria 50 páginas

This is sweet but I can't connect to any of the characters at all, the story feels a little flat and if I have to listen to Clementine talk about Iwan's eyes one more time I might call it quits

This book lacks what many other books abuse: multiple POVs and timelines. It just feels so flat being told only from Clementines POV in the present. I feel like the story would feel much deeper if we had: 1) Analea's POV of her story with Vera; 2) Clementines POV in the past, living with her aunt; 3) Iwan's past and present POV.

idk if the fact that I just finished the Neapolitan Quartet and I'm still under Elena Ferrante's spell but the writing in this feels too mediocre

I could not care any less about the side quests of a million characters that fill up more than a half of this book.

The premise of this book: a girl goes missing at a camp 15 years after her own brother had gone missing at the same camp. 45% in and the plot hasn't moved an inch forward.

WAY TOO MANY POVS AND TIMELINES WAY WAAAY TOO MUCH
