cried, sobbed, tried to stop crying and failed. can’t put in words how much this book got to me. i was crying from 50% into it until i finished and nowcried, sobbed, tried to stop crying and failed. can’t put in words how much this book got to me. i was crying from 50% into it until i finished and now i have the strangest feeling because it was such a heavy read. they have to deal with so many complicated and hurtful situations i honestly felt physical pain when reading some chapters because of how painful that situation must’ve been (feels weird writing this about characters but it is what it is). their love for each other truly is inspiring and i don’t think i’ll get over this book any time soon....more
okay so until half of this i wasn’t feeling it. it made me remember john green too much for my taste, and as much as i’ve liked his books in the past,okay so until half of this i wasn’t feeling it. it made me remember john green too much for my taste, and as much as i’ve liked his books in the past, they feel like caricatures. too much unrealistic interactions, relationships and characters. so i was legit thinking of dropping this without finishing, which i only didn’t because i have this thing with going through until the end in all things but anyway not the point. even as it did get better in the second half, it’s still not my favorite book. it’s incredibly sad and i felt genuinely touched by some of the characters and that was the thing that made it worth reading. if you’re into books written by john green or if you’re into books that will make you sad with some beautiful passages, and possibly will make you cry too, this is the book for you....more
this one sealed the deal for me. while the first two ones were very good, this one was great. the development of the characters kept the same pace, anthis one sealed the deal for me. while the first two ones were very good, this one was great. the development of the characters kept the same pace, and the writing is also similar between them but this one has what the other two don’t: bonding between the characters. in the first book, for the most part it’s just lily and lo against the world (almost literally lol), they’re slowing letting people into their lives; the second one has some bonding but it’s so very sad because they’re separated, but this one? this one has the loveliest couple, fighting their addictions and refusing to enable each other while they work to make amends with people they’ve let down. it’s awesome. the first glimpse of what i hope the core six will be, the first time we got to see found family <3 this book got me laughing, crying and getting mad in the span of some pages, and i loved every bit of it, every dialogue and dynamic between the characters! ...more
this book got me crying for two nights in a row, and i kept thinking about the couple the whole day while i was reading. it's so sad, and i can't say this book got me crying for two nights in a row, and i kept thinking about the couple the whole day while i was reading. it's so sad, and i can't say it's sadder than the first book because it's different kinds of sad and honestly i didn't even know i could feel that. loved how the authors choose to split this into different months and loved the flashbacks! very excited to see how they're going to be together now, truly addressing and treating their addictions, rather than enabling them. one thing i know is that the next book is probably still going to be very sad, but i think it's going to be a whole new experience. ...more
i am beyond surprised. i’ve seen everyone talking about this on booktwt and i really mean pretty much everyone, this is one of the most famous series i am beyond surprised. i’ve seen everyone talking about this on booktwt and i really mean pretty much everyone, this is one of the most famous series and there was some serious hype going on. HOWEVER i, as usual, thought that maybe i wouldn’t like it as much as everyone else, right? wrong. this is so very much entertaining and well written with such lovable characters it’s impossible to resist. also, it has so much more sadness than i thought there would be? i know i shed some tears super unexpectedly. one of the starts is solely for such a great representation of a sex addiction, which i was afraid would be fetishized and made me uncomfortable but reeeally wasn’t. absolutely loved the way none of the characters was perfect in any way, far from it, screwing up and trying to make up for it as they go. incredible, looking forward to the next books....more
