Reviewed by EvaDas Beste Jugendbuch das ich bisher gelesen habe!
Reviewed by joooomfg, hit in every possible way. for the school workaholics and the socially awkward. don't try to make the message about romantic love, bit boring bits in between but I was an emotional wreck after finishing
Reviewed by Norinathis book is everything.
Reviewed by Johanna1st read: Das erste Buch bei dem ich geweint hab. Es ist so schön! Man hat das Gefühl jeden zu verstehen und will jedem helfen. Mit Abstand mein Lieblingsbuch. 2nd read: Dieses Buch ist einfach so perfekt - herzerwärmend, erfrischend und die Stimmung war einfach perfekt. Die Geschichte hat mich total mitgenommen. Es gehört auf jeden Fall zu den besten Jugendbüchern, die ich je gelesen habe. Wenn du ein Teenager bist, musst du es echt lesen! Die Geschichte von Frances und Aled lässt dich dichselbst besser verstehen.
Reviewed by ClandesvRadio Silence is such a wholesome and cute and authentic coming-of-age story. Also, for anyone loving Gilmore girls, you will probably love this. Plus, it made me purchase vans (which I alwaysssssss wanted when I was younger but never had the money for) and realized a small wish of my younger self.
