I loved it! An amazing contemporary!
Die Bücher von Kasie West sind irgendwie immer total süß und man kommt einfach nicht von los. In P.S. I like you hat Lily einen geheimnisvollen Brieffreund, mit dem sie sich während des Chemie-Unterrichts Briefe schreibt. Die Briefe sind wirklich total niedlich und ich mochte wie die beiden über ihre Leidenschaft zur Musik reden. Lily selbst schreibt Songtexte, was ich ebenfalls sehr gerne mochte, und einige der Texte fand ich wirklich sehr gelungen und hätte dazu gerne eine Melodie gehört. Die Geschichte ist sehr süß und unterhaltsam, natürlich findet man auch das eine oder andere Jugendbuchklischee, aber dies hat meine Unterhaltung definitiv nicht gestört. Ich lese inzwischen seltener YA Liebesromane, aber bei denen von Kasie West weiß ich einfach, dass sie mich immer gut unterhalten können.
Secret pen pals.. chaotic big family… these are my comfort tropes leave me alone
4,5 Sterne
I feel like if I hold things close, never share, then I never give anyone the opportunity to judge me. I didn’t particularly enjoy this book but I also didn’t hate it. I’ve read quite a few Kasie West books and they all left me feeling kind of “meh” towards them. They’re never something I remember a few days later: I really like to read them when I’m in a mood in which I don’t know what kind of book I want to read next. I think I like to read them because nothing really happens. And that’s my main problem with her books. Although P.S I Like You has what feels like a MILLION subplots (family drama, fights with her best friend, a song writing competition…) I was so bored. The story was full of clichés and there was no real mystery regarding the pen pal – it was obvious from the start. I didn’t like the love interest, he was a complete and utter asshole. I still don’t believe that their hate turned into love. Her best friend wasn’t any better. She constantly wanted to set Lily up with someone, as if having a boyfriend in her life is the only thing that matters. And I don’t think that she treats her like a friend (“Aw, how cute, you found a new weird pen pal. The two of you are like the same person.”). The boys she tried to set Lily up with were never mentioned again, yet I found them more interesting than the actual love interest. Then there’s Lily’s sister, Ashley. I think her character was quite irrelevant and gave really bad advice (“I you want a romantic relationship with a guy, first he has to find you mysterious, then intriguing, then funny. In that order. If it’s in any different order, you are forever labelled friend.”) I can already tell that I probably will never think about this book again. There was nothing that moved me or impressed me, it’s really quite unremarkable.
3.5 Stars. To be honest, I scrolled through it way more than actually reading it because it was a bit drawn out to much for me and way too predictable. Still a nice story.
Exactly the book I needed rights now. Even though the plot twists were obvious I really enjoy this book. It was light, fun and cute.
