Wo soll ich anfangen…? Mir fällt es irgendwie schwer, dieses Buch zu bewerten. Ich habe lange gebraucht um in das Buch richtig reinzukommen. Vielleicht lag es daran, dass die Hauptfiguren jünger sind als ich (17,18 J.), oder weil meiner Meinung nach manchmal zu sehr versucht wurde „das hier ist kein Teenage Liebesfilm, sondern REAL LIFE!“ deutlich zu machen. Aber ab Seite 200, war ich richtig invested und mir fiel es schwer das Buch wegzulegen! Ich musste zum Ende hin auch mehrmals weinen. Die Message, dass jeder seine eigenen Probleme hat, und man nicht immer weiß, wie es einer anderen Person geht oder womit sie zu kämpfen hat, wird in diesem Buch deutlich! Deswegen 3⭐️ !😊 „Life goes on. Things change, and the sooner people realize that the better.” […] “There’s no point wishing things were the way they were because that’s never going to happen.”
ugh i love this
